"lonely" lyrics

So why does it hurt
All of the time?
Why do the things that I love have to die?

Cold nights, I wish I had you here to hold me
Never knew that love could hurt, I wish someone woulda' told me
Was it something I did? Was it something I said?
I can't get the thought of you out of my head
And truth be told, when the whisky's gone
God knows that I should not be alone

So why does it hurt
All of the time?
Why do the things that I love have to die?
I'm not afraid of these tears that I cry
I can't feel pain when there's nothin' inside (nothin' inside)

I know there's no healing the scars that I hide
It only hurts more when I try
I'm not afraid of these tears that I cry
But why is it only
Me that feels lonely
All of the time?

Driving down this highway, I'm gonna let go of the wheel
Tears running down my face and I hope that I heal
Soon as you had hugged me goodbye I knew it was real
But you don't know the hurt I feel
Our love's up in flames, let it burn (flames, burn)
My heart breaks, I guess I'll never learn

So why does it hurt
All of the time?
Why do the things that I love have to die?
I'm not afraid of these tears that I cry
I can't feel pain when there's nothin' inside (nothin' inside)

I know there's no healing the scars that I hide
It only hurts more when I try
I'm not afraid of these tears that I cry
But why is it only
Me that feels lonely
All of the time?

All of the time
Why do the things that I love have to die?
