Alec Benjamin songs lyrics

𝑪𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒉𝒖𝒓𝒕𝒔

I had a friend I knew in the 9th grade and he didn't come to class one day cause they found something in his brain so they sent him home
So I went to see him after school
I said 'Is there something I can do that might make you feel more comfortable' and he told me 'no'
He said 'I'm happy that you made it please don't treat me like your patient
I don't need more medication
The only way I know that I'm alive is cause it hurts
So anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
Cause if I'm numb I might as well be underneath the dirt
The only way I know that I'm alive, that I'm alive is cause it hurts, cause it hurts'
And I won't forget the things he said every time I start to feel depressed to be greatful that I still have breath down inside my lungs
Cause without the dark there's no light and without the pain there'd be no life so even when it hurts inside I won't try to run
I'll be happy that I made it
I'll be open, I'll embrace it
I won't take no medication
The only way I know that I'm alive is cause it hurts
So anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
Cause if I'm numb I might as well be underneath the dirt
The only way I know that I'm alive, that I'm alive is cause it hurts, is cause it hurts
The only way I know that I'm alive is cause it hurts
So anything that takes away my pain will make it worse
Cause if I'm numb I might as well be underneath the dirt
The only way I know that I'm alive, that I'm alive is cause it hurts, is cause it hurts
Is cause it hurts
Is cause it hurts
