You hate
New
York, but I love it
You see floor, I look above it
To the high rising skylines,
dreams are made sometimes
Of growing fur
You don't like talking,
when things get broken
So we just keep walking
and it stays unspoken
And I live with the pieces
While you remain speechless and hurt
But if I could go back
To the imperfect, then I would
Cause it's worth the pain
For the times that it was good
Why does it hurt like this?
Why do I feel alive?
You must have put it there
When I put both my arms right around you,
around you
Why does it hurt so much to la -la -love,
to la -la -la -love you?
Why did you build a life for
only to watch it sink?
Why did you disappear the second that
I needed to find you, find you?
Why does it hurt so bad to la -la -love,
to la -la -la -love you?
You don't like people, you avoid them
In precious moments,
you destroy them
While I wrote you the verses
You made me feel worthless
So I just stopped writing
But if I could go back
To the imperfect then I would
Cause it's worth the pain
For the times that it was good
Why does it hurt like this?
Why do I feel alive?
You must have put it there when I put both
my arms right around you, around you
Why does it hurt so much to la -la -love,
to la -la -la -love you?
Why did you build a life for me
only to watch it sink?
Why did you disappear the second that
I needed to find you, to find you?
Why does it hurt so bad to la -la -love,
to la -la -la -love you?
And if I could say what I needed to say
I'd be the first one admitting
that I made a mistake
Cause I made a mistake
And if I could heal all the
scars that you hide
I'd take them all,
I would mix them with mine
If you would be kind
And love, me one more time
Why does it hurt like this?
Why do I feel alive?
You must have put it there
When I put both my arms
Right around you, around you
Why does it hurt so much
To la -la -love, to la -la -la -love you?
Why did you build a life
Only to watch it sink?
Why did you disappear the second that
I needed to find you, to find you?
Why does it hurt so bad to let I love,
to let I let I love you?
