Still Hurts

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

I don't cry when your name comes up

I don't stop when our song comes on

I can laugh with the people around me

Like nothing ever went wrong

I packed away the photographs

The ones I couldn't look at then

I tell myself I'm doing better

But some nights prove me wrong again

Pre-Chorus

I thought time would take your shadow

Carry it somewhere I can't see

Chorus

But it still hurts

When the room gets quiet

When I reach for my phone at night

It still hurts

When somebody asks me

How you've been and if you're alright

I moved on the way I was supposed to

At least that's what it looks like

But it still hurts

And I don't know why

Verse 2

I don't drive by your street anymore

I know every turn to avoid

I don't read the old conversations

Or listen to my own voice

Saying we'd never be strangers

Saying we'd never let go

Funny how forever sounded easy

When neither of us knew

Pre-Chorus

That some goodbyes keep echoing

Long after they're gone

Chorus

And it still hurts

When the room gets quiet

When I reach for my phone at night

It still hurts

When somebody asks me

How you've been and if you're alright

I moved on the way I was supposed to

At least that's what it looks like

But it still hurts

And I don't know why

Bridge

Maybe I don't miss who you are now

Maybe I miss who we were then

Maybe my heart never got the message

That this story reached its end

Maybe healing isn't a straight line

Maybe some scars stay alive

Final Chorus

'Cause it still hurts

When I wake up dreaming

And forget that you're not mine

It still hurts

When I catch myself smiling

Then remember goodbye

The world kept turning without us

I know that I'll be alright

But it still hurts

Yeah, it still hurts

Sometimes love leaves

And it still hurts
