Learn to hurt

Learn to say "I'm hurting"

when you hurt

and save all other words

for the sun in the sky

mean it when you say goodbye

don't lie to us both

cos it's hard to stay

leaving doesn't make it easier

to walk away

or to forget a lifetime

of painting memories together

watching the last candle burn-

I don't mean to

hurt you when

I'm hurting to say "learn".
