It Hurts

(album: Evering Road - 2021)

You've been talking, watch your mouth
I've been hearing rumours that you're spreading in town, yeah
You don't know me so don't try choking me
Get yourself back in line and follow the crowd

Jealousy ain't gonna make a man out of you
Teach yourself some lessons and go back to school
You're more than a fool if you think you'll leave me with bruises
But the truth is

It hurts, when your name is in the dirt
It hurts, to hide the pain but now I've learnt
That people who try to sit on your throne
Throw kisses then punches, throw flowers then stones
It hurts, when your name is in the dirt

What you saying? Pack of lies
But I'm held up against the wall the harder I try
To forget the noises, ignore the voices
But they keep getting louder that's the problem

Jealousy ain't gonna make a man out of you
Teach yourself some lessons and go back to school
You're more than a fool if you think you'll leave me with bruises
But the truth is

It hurts, when your name is in the dirt
It hurts, to hide the pain but now I've learnt
That people who try to sit on your throne
Throw kisses then punches, throw flowers then stones
It hurts, when your name is in the dirt

Jealousy ain't gonna make a man out of you
Teach yourself some lessons and go back to school
You're more than a fool if you think you'll leave me with bruises
But the truth is

It hurts, when your name is in the dirt
It hurts, to hide the pain but now I've learnt
That people who try to sit on your throne
Throw kisses then punches, throw flowers then stones
It hurts, when your name is in the dirt

Jealousy ain't gonna make a man out of you
Teach yourself some lessons and go back to school
You're more than a fool if you think you'll leave me with bruises
But the truth is
