lyrics

Maybe it's just a torture that I can't resist
Yesterday looked through our pictures
Perhaps I miss the pain that used to be so constant
Had to find something to remind me of it

I've looked down the barrel of a loaded gun
For so long I'm numb to it now

It only hurts when I think anymore
I'm not crying in my beer anymore
I don't kill myself to sleep anymore
It only hurts when I think

A year since I last had your lips pressed against mine
Yet I taste them when I close my eyes
A knife in my back that I have grown accustomed to
Just try hard not to think of you

I've walked on the edge of a bottomless cliff
For so long I'm used to it now

It only hurts when I think anymore
I'm not crying in my beer anymore
I don't kill myself to sleep anymore
It only hurts when I think
