Cause it Hurts

I had a friend I knew in the ninth gradeAnd he didn't come to class one day'Cause they find somethingInside his brain so they sent him homeSo I went to see him after schoolI said "Is there something I can do thatMight make you feel more comfortable? "And he told me "No"He said "I'm happy that you made itPlease don't treat me like your patientI don't need more medication, " mmThe only way I know that I'm alive is 'cause it hurtsSo anything that takes away my pain will make it worse'Cause if I'm numb I might as well be underneath the dirtThe only way I know that I'm aliveThat I'm alive is 'cause it hurtsIs 'cause it hurtsAnd I won't forget the things he saidEvery time I start to feel depressedTo be grateful that I still have breath down inside my lungs'Cause without the darkness there's no lightAnd without the pain there'd be no life soEven when it hurts inside I won't try to runI'll be happy that I made it, I'll be open, I'll embrace itI won't take no medication, mmThe only way I know that I'm alive is 'cause it hurtsSo anything that takes away my pain will make it worse'Cause if I'm numb I might as well be underneath the dirtThe only way I know that I'm aliveThat I'm alive is 'cause it hurtsIs 'cause it hurtsThe only way I know that I'm alive is 'cause it hurtsSo anything that takes away my pain will make it worse'Cause if I'm numbI might as well be underneath the dirt, mmThe only way I know that I'm aliveThat I'm alive is 'cause it hurtsDam-da-da-dam-da-da-dam-da-da-daIs 'cause it hurts (MM)Dam-da-da-dam-da-da-dam-da-da-daIs 'cause it hurtsDam-da-da-dam-da-da-dam-da-da-daIs 'cause it hurtsDam-da-da-dam-da-da-dam-da-da-daIs 'cause it hurts
