When I look down into my soul 

I can see you bleeding 

It's so tragic that I can't control 

These wreckless feelings 



I'd stand naked in the freezing wind 

To your glory and honor 

But how can I win this war 

When I can't even face the battle 



And here in my Garden Of Eden 

There's a coming thunder 

Well maybe if it tears me to pieces it will 

Kill this aching hunger 



And it hurts 

You know it hurts so good 

Oh it hurts 



I said 

Maybe in time peace will reign 

And end this insanity 

Maybe the meek shall inherit the earth 

But I pray you inherit me 



But now my Garden Of Eden 

Is a barren tundra 

If you could cut into my heart 

You would touch my aching hunger 



And it hurts 

You know it hurts so good 

Oh God it hurts 

It hurts 



Ya, and I let it burn 

Because I like it 

I don't mind the infection 

Now it's comin' down 

It's comin' down hard 

It's crashin' on me 



It's in a twinkle 

It's in a breeze 

And it passes 

So subtle and elusively 

Try to grab it 

But it's gone and the rage that it fires up 

Is like a blow torch in your face 



And it hurts 

Oh it hurts 

Yeah, you know it hurts so good 

Oh it hurts
