it doesn't have to hurt

could a spark

illuminate the dark

you dit it all

you've always done

a false alarm

a light that blinds us all

you're heaven sent

but cold within

when you lose yourself

in a gasp for air

when it doesn't have to hurt

it always will

we gave it all

the aim was for the stars

our time had come

and we wasted it all

when you lose yourself

in a gasp for air

when it doesn't have to hurt

it always will

when you fool yourself

with a grain of sand

when it doesn't have to hurt

it always will

when it doesn't have to hurt

it always will

i'll do it on my own

the fall is all we know

the same as life before

i'll do this on my own

it doesn't have to hurt

it doesn't have to hurt

when it doesn't have to hurt

it always will

when it doesn't have to hurt

it always will
