Lyrics

Door closed in my face
Dream sat in my lap
My eyes clouded with tears

I could hear someone laughing
I could hear someone scream,
"Justify my fears"

The pedestal for you is gone
In the rubble I'm afraid
As isolation nears

Don't you know you almost had me convinced that it
Shouldn't Hurt Like This?
Wrapped around your finger so tight
It Shouldn't Hurt Like This
Where is all the sweet, sweet joy?
It Shouldn't Hurt Like This
Back to the place where it never was
It Shouldn't Hurt Like This

Jesus, You step in
Your warm embrace
And I give in

A forward vision
Some hope within
I heal in time
And try again

Lord, You almost have me convinced
That it Shouldn't Hurt Like This

Why leave me alone?
Am I not a good friend?
Or is my time just past?

I know what you are saying
To anyone who's listening
To make your hatred last

Now your memory
Is like a song once heard
It left my mind so fast

Don't you know you almost had me convinced that it
Shouldn't Hurt Like This?
Wrapped around your finger so tight
It Shouldn't Hurt Like This
Where is all the sweet, sweet joy?
It Shouldn't Hurt Like This
Back to the place where it never was
It Shouldn't Hurt Like This

Jesus, You step in
Your warm embrace
And I give in

A forward vision
Some hope within
I heal in time
And try again

Lord, You almost have me convinced
That it Shouldn't Hurt Like This
