Lyrics:
Well I saw you at the mud bank
out there trying to make amends
Wondering if you knew what was coming

that there was nothing left beneath the sand

I gave your arm the smallest tug
as your eyes seeped out the pain
What can’t I say to make it worse
as I rack this empty brain

And you asked why does it hurt
The pain that seems to grow
when the memories turned away
Dinners back on the table
in bed by ten every day
But half this room is still cold
dulled the colors of the world

when the snow started falling
you could dance without the stars
he would chase you down the alley
calling out your name from afar

and then collapse in a heap
with no more breath left to give
but the snow kept on falling
we started to kiss

and you asked why does it hurt
the pain that we both grow
with our memories turned away
i’m in love with your presence
i want love to heal your pain
but half this room is still cold
dulled the colors of the world

why does it hurt
why does it hurt
why does it hurt
why does it hurt
