Description
The pain, stuck in time, sounds almost tender here - like an old record, scratched in all the right places. Each note is like an attempt not to let go of something that should have been let go of long ago, but the hands are still holding on. It's as if memory lives its own life, and the body is tired of being its home. There is something childish about this resentment - like puppies at the door: they reach out, begging to be let in, but no one opens it. Because there lies the past. And if someone felt the same pain for even a moment, everything would become easier. But no. You have to run - not to save yourself, but simply so you don't hear your heart still calling you back.
Lyrics and translation
Original
I'm stuck in the past
And its killing me inside
Now I'm hating all these things
I haven't even tried
And just like puppies at the door
They're always begging to let them
But I can't cos of you
You always win
But I wonder
Always wondered
Why don't you hurt like me
I want you to hurt like me
If only for a minute
You could feel how I did
Then you would hurt like me
But didn't that happen so long ago
They ask, why do you still care
So go on tell me what you know
That's right you weren't even there
And just like puppies at the door
They're always begging to let them in
But I can't
Cos of you
You always win
But I wonder
Always wondered
Why don't you hurt like me
Cos I want you to hurt like me
For only for a minute
You could feel how I did
Then you would know why I
I run away
Run away baby
I run away
You're why I run away run away run away baby
I run away
So why don't hurt like me
Why do you why do you why do you breathe the same air as me
If only for a minute
You could feel how I did
Then you would hurttttt like me
Then you would hurt like me
So why don't you hurt like me
Cos I want you hurt like me
If only for a minute
You could feel how I did
Then you would hurt like me
Then you would hurt like me
