WHY DOESN’T MY HEART STOP HURTING?

Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When I can only think off you,
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When I think of all the things we could have done,
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When so many of your promises never came true.
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When we are no longer one.

Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
For me nothing will ever be the same,
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
That fact that you now have left me,
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When I know I will never see/speak to you again.
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When I only ever wanted you to be happy and free.

Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When I know I need to let you go.
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
Is yours hurting-just as much as mine?
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
My brave smile- is just for show.
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
It’s okay, now-I’m doing just fine.

Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
When all I can do is think of you,
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
I know that I just need to move on,
I’m trying just not too.
Why doesn’t my heart stop hurting?
I hope this time in heling doesn’t take me too long.

When you came to me baby you were somebody fine
Not the type of guy to try and use a cheap line
You really care-me not just feel like an act
So how do you explain the fact that
You’re hurting me; oh your love is hurting me

When I first stared into your sinister eyes
I failed to see into your brilliant disguise
I felt weak; I tried to hide
I felt pain, I wasn’t quite your size
Your love is hurting me; oh yes you're hurting me

You’re hurting me. Your love is hurting me
Oh, it’s hurting, hurting, hurting, hurting me…

I don’t mind a game when you love me like you do
But this intense kind of pain, it tears me right in two
You simply call my name I do what you want me to
Sometimes I feel ashamed, I get used to you

I love you like crazy, but you do it so rough
To be with you baby is dangerous stuff
I’ve learned wild things that I wouldn’t dare to show
But there’s something now baby I think you should know
Youre hurting me; oh, he’s hurting me…
He’s hurting me. Your love is hurting me
Oh, it's hurting, hurting, hurting, hurting me…

I don’t mind a game when he love me like him do
But this intense kind of pain, it break me right in two
You simply call my name I do what you want me to
Sometimes I feel ashamed, I get used to you, ooh…

When you came to me baby you were somebody fine

Not the type of guy to try and use a cheap line

You really cared it didn't feel
like an act

So how do you explain the fact that

You’re hurting me; oh you're  hurting me

When I first stared into your sinister eyes

I failed to see into your brilliant disguise

I felt weak; I tried to hide

I felt pain, I wasn’t quite your size

Your love is hurting me; oh yes you're  hurting me

You’re hurting me. Your love is hurting me

Oh, it’s hurting, hurting, hurting, hurting me…

I don’t mind a game when you love me like you do

But this intense kind of pain, it tears me right in two

You simply call my name I do what you want me to

Sometimes I feel ashamed, Ill get used to you

I love you like crazy, but you do it so rough

To be with you baby is dangerous stuff

I’ve learned wild things that I wouldn’t dare to show

But there’s something now baby I think you should know

You're hurting me; oh, yes you're hurting me…

You're hurting me. Yiur love is hurting me

Oh, you're  hurting, hurting, hurting, hurting me…

I don’t mind a game when he love me like him do

But this intense kind of pain, it break me right in two

You simply call my name I do what you want me to

Sometimes I feel ashamed, I get used to you, ooh…

Repeat chorus

Hurting

There's so much hurting in the world today
Countries are hurting other countries
Governments are hurting their own people
Employers are hurting their employees
Employees do the same to their employers
Parents are hurting their kids & vice versa
Spouses are hurting their other halves
Friends are hurting one another
Even strangers are hurting strangers
People are hurting the environment
The environment is hurting the people
Sicknesses are ravaging people's bodies
Individuals also hurt their own self
I'm guilty of some of these myself
My diagnosis of these hurts is self-centeredness —
People care about themselves alone!
My prescription is more and more doses
of love & empathy.
It never stops hurting.
That hole he left.
Everyone says it takes time..
..that I’ll feel better eventually.
But I won’t.

It never stops hurting.
That ache in my chest.
There’s a feeling like so much was left unsaid.
But in reality, it still would have happened.
He stopped loving me.

How do you move on?
From the person you can’t, or don’t want to, live without.
How do you move on?
When all you want to do is go back in time.

It never stops hurting.
Don’t believe the well-meant lies.
There won’t be another special someone.
Not when all you see in others,
Are reflections of him

It never stops hurting.
And he’s in everything you see.
He’s in every thought, every memory, every song.
You want to feel whole,
but you never will.

How do you move on?
When all you want is his kiss again.
How do you move on?
When you can still imagine his ring on your finger.

It never stops hurting.
When you lose your other half.
And eventually you decide to just wait.
Hope he comes back.
Because you’re that pathetic.

It never stops hurting.
No matter how many pills you pop.
No matter how many calories you drop.
No matter how many scars you carve.
It never stops hurting.

So why bother trying to get better,
when it never stops?
Inspired by a low point I experienced lately, about being thrown aside by someone I loved.  Comments for improvement are more than welcome.

I'm hurting
I don't show it-I smile sunshines at you
I laugh but inside I'm hurting so bad
I look at your smiling face, hear your laughter, I smell your scent and imagine her doing the same and
I'm hurting
I hear your promises, your I love you's, your forevers and
I'm hurting
I know that once you looked at her the same way you look at me, that the things you do with me and the way you kiss me and by God
I'm hurting
Knowing you've discovered the unknown with her, that your writings and knowledge is from her, that at one point you gave her your heart so easily, that I'm just second
I'm hurting
that one day you can let go of me as easily as you let go of her, that one day you'll want to run back to her because she's given you more than I ever could
My insides being ripped apart, my throat shut, my eyes pouring
I'm hurting
Because second place still doesn't win
And that how I know I love you, although now I'm not even sure what love is
The risks we take in life are sometimes made without second thought. Although sometimes we don't know how far we have fallen because once we look up we've already hit rock bottom. And that's love

im hurting because my parents are too busy
im hurting because my friends don't miss me
it hurts to feel so alone
it hurts to constantly check my phone
and im hurting because no one's noticing

I'm hurting and I'm tired of pushing it aside to make you happy.
I'm hurting and I'm tired of pretending that I'm not.
I'm hurting and I'm tired of crying alone with no one to hold me and tell me it's okay.
I'm hurting and it seems like you don't care to notice.
I'm hurting..
I wish you'd see.. how much I'm hurting..
I wish you could feel.. how much I'm hurting.
I'm hurting, please notice before it's too late.
