Things That Hurt

WHY DO WE TURN UP A SAD SONG THAT MAKES US CRY
WHY DO WE KEEP THOSE POLAROID MEMORIES CLOSE BY
WHY DON'T WE SIT THE WHISKEY DOWN WHEN WE KNOW WE COULD
WHY IS IT THAT THE PAIN FEELS SO DAMN GOOD

IT'S CAUSE A HEARTBROKE JUNKIE CAN'T GET ENOUGH
WE RUN BACK IN THE HOUSE WHEN IT'S BURNIN' UP
IT'S A TEMPORARY FIX, IT'S A LOVE HATE THING
CAUSE THE THINGS THAT HURT TAKE THE HURT AWAY

WHY DO WE REMEMBER THAT NUMBER BY HEART
AND READ OLD LOVE LETTERS TILL THEY FALL APART
AND TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME NIGHT AFTER NIGHT
WHY CAN'T SOME PEOPLE GET PAST GOODBYE

IT'S CAUSE A HEARTBROKE JUNKIE CAN'T GET ENOUGH
WE RUN BACK IN THE HOUSE WHEN IT'S BURNIN' UP
IT'S A TEMPORARY FIX, IT'S A LOVE HATE THING
CAUSE THE THINGS THAT HURT TAKE THE HURT AWAY

DO WE DO IT JUST TO KNOW THAT WE CAN STILL FEEL
DO WE DO IT JUST TO KNOW THAT THE HURTS STILL REAL

IT'S CAUSE A HEARTBROKE JUNKIE CAN'T GET ENOUGH
WE RUN BACK IN THE HOUSE WHEN IT'S BURNIN' UP
IT'S A TEMPORARY FIX, IT'S A LOVE HATE THING
CAUSE THE THINGS THAT HURT TAKE THE HURT AWAY
YEAH THE THINGS THAT HURT TAKE THE HURT AWAY
