If you knew the pain you cause me
You hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt-
You left me alone in a king-size
I used to read you in the dark like Braille
I'd have rather never read
I brought you to bed like nightmares, nightmares
I'm outside waiting for you but it's cold in the car
And I'd take you to a special place even if it's not perfect
Fogged up like a freezer, like windows when it's winter outside
And we talk so much that the set phrases turn into writing
Stupid me for not telling you the flaws right away
I wanted at least dessert, at least the limoncellos
And I threw myself in like pogo
It was your game, me John and you Yoko
Look for me in a storm, you don't need to take cover
If they shoot me in the head, just keep the SIAE
Whoa-oh-oh, if you knew the pain you cause me
You hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt-
You left me alone in a king-size
I used to read you in the dark like Braille
I'd have rather never read
I brought you to bed like nightmares, nightmares
The Tibetan ones, where the vultures
Carry off everything that's left
Kind of how it ended between us
Only songs are left that I'd erase in hindsight
I still think of her when I pay the shrink with royalty cash
But you roll the stress flag-style
'Cause you're better than me at saying goodbye
Touché, all my nightmares ask about you, baby
And I didn't call you, there was barely any reception
You said, 'Bravo', I answered with fire
The storm has passed, I've stopped feeling bad
We hit the same party under separate speakers
Whoa-oh, if you knew the pain you cause me
You hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt-
You left me alone in a king-size
I used to read you in the dark like Braille
I'd have rather never read
I brought you to bed like nightmares, nightmares
True ending, false start
There was effort, but not enough
I put in my heart, my head and my arms
You never win when you lose face
Whoa-oh-oh, stupid me for not telling you the flaws right away
The nightmares were just unspoken secrets
If you knew the pain you cause me
You hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt-
You left me alone in a king-size
I used to read you in the dark like Braille
I'd have rather never read
I brought you to bed like nightmares, nightmares
