Stop Making This Hurt

Daniel puts the kids to bed, they're screamin', "Oh, the gods must be crazy"

Well, Jimmy's on the road tonight, she doesn't recognize her country

My father's in the room next door cryin' with his ma at sixty-five

Well, every time I close my eyes, I just see you written in big lights

You know what it says?

Stop makin' this hurt

Say goodbye like you mean it

Stop tryin' on this hurt

Just say goodbye like you mean it

Just say goodbye like you mean it

My mamma's in the house tonight tryna break free of New Jersey

While the kids are on the street and they're cryin', "Let me live in my country"

But me and Ray

We got a dream and a car, we're like free as the night

So how come every time I take a drive I just see it written on street signs?

And you know what it says?

Stop makin' this hurt

Say goodbye like you mean it

Stop tryin' on this hurt

Just say goodbye like you mean it

Just say goodbye like you mean it

But if we take the sadness out of Saturday night

I wonder what we'll be left with, anything worth the fight?

I wanna run from the darkness, wanna shout at the light

But it's comin' over me now

Two, three, four, five

Oh God, we barely survived

Just say goodbye like you mean it

Stop makin' this hurt

Say goodbye like you mean it (Say goodbye like you mean it)

Just say goodbye like you mean it

Stop makin' this hurt (Say goodbye like you mean it)

Say goodbye like you mean it (Say goodbye like you mean it)

Say goodbye like you mean it

Come on, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

Stop makin' this hurt
