The Things That Hurt Us
I was the last one to admit when I had problems
I'm still the last one to admit when I need help
My friends they offer any time, I always turn them down
Cause they don't know the shame that I have felt
And I've been sleeping all the time but I'm still tired
And I'm scared to write new songs cause they're all sad
I've been drinking every night and even though it's not that much
I know it's never gonna make me glad
Oh, funny how we glorify the things we know will hurt us
Oh, cause every time I look at what I've done, I'm so ashamed of
Oh, and if I could go back, I'd take my wrongs and I would change em
Oh, if I could just start over I would never dip my feet in
All those things that hurt us
I was only around 12 when it all started
I was introduced by one of my best friends
But if I knew that it would be the thorn that pierced my side
I know I would have never given in
And while the TV screen tells kids that it's so harmless
And the men leading our country might agree
Well looking back and seeing how it tainted my whole life
I feel like I was blind but now I see
Oh, funny how we glorify the things we know will hurt us
Oh, cause every time I look at what I've done, I'm so ashamed of
Oh, and if I could go back, I'd take my wrongs and I would change em
Oh, if I could just start over I would never dip my feet in
All those things that hurt us
All those things that hurt us
Funny how we glorify the things we know will hurt us
Cause every time I look at what I've done, I'm so ashamed of
Oh, and if I could go back, I'd take my wrongs and I would change em
Oh, if I could just start over I would never dip my feet in
All those things that hurt us
If you're hold something in you think is heinous
Know that Jesus picked the sinners not the saints
Though you and I have done some things we really really hate
Know you don't have to carry all that weight
And to the people in my life that wanna end it
Cause you don't know how to go another day
I know this life is hard, and I can't understand your pain
But the world's better for it if you stay
I'm still the last one to admit when I need help
My friends they offer any time, I always turn them down
Cause they don't know the shame that I have felt
And I've been sleeping all the time but I'm still tired
And I'm scared to write new songs cause they're all sad
I've been drinking every night and even though it's not that much
I know it's never gonna make me glad
Oh, funny how we glorify the things we know will hurt us
Oh, cause every time I look at what I've done, I'm so ashamed of
Oh, and if I could go back, I'd take my wrongs and I would change em
Oh, if I could just start over I would never dip my feet in
All those things that hurt us
I was only around 12 when it all started
I was introduced by one of my best friends
But if I knew that it would be the thorn that pierced my side
I know I would have never given in
And while the TV screen tells kids that it's so harmless
And the men leading our country might agree
Well looking back and seeing how it tainted my whole life
I feel like I was blind but now I see
Oh, funny how we glorify the things we know will hurt us
Oh, cause every time I look at what I've done, I'm so ashamed of
Oh, and if I could go back, I'd take my wrongs and I would change em
Oh, if I could just start over I would never dip my feet in
All those things that hurt us
All those things that hurt us
Funny how we glorify the things we know will hurt us
Cause every time I look at what I've done, I'm so ashamed of
Oh, and if I could go back, I'd take my wrongs and I would change em
Oh, if I could just start over I would never dip my feet in
All those things that hurt us

Cause you don't know how to go another day
I know this life is hard, and I can't understand your pain
But the world's better for it if you stay
