This Has Made a Lot of People Very Angry and Been Widely Regarded as a Bad Move Lyrics

It's been a quiet while

I hate that I haven't thought about you in weeks

Nine months gone in an instant

In a Rotterdam apartment at 3AM

Where you cried "stay, please stay"

"When we were asleep, everything was okay"

And I said "that's exactly why you know I can't"

And running through the city for the train, it hit me

That it hurts that it doesn't hurt more

And it hurts that it doesn't hurt like it should

And it hurts that it tells me, I'm sure

That we weren't right for each other, no, we weren't good

I found a page full of your sketches

Flipping through an old notebook I found

You drew a heart just like the one that I kept in my wallet

No idea where it it's gone now

Because I could only keep running for so long

Ignoring the sun reflecting off the pavement

And I just want to keep saying I'm sorry

Until you believe me

But Sisyphus, meet boulder, I guess

And it hurts that it doesn't hurt more

And it hurts that it doesn't hurt like it should

And it hurts that it tells me, I'm sure

That we weren't right for each other, no, we weren't good

And it hurts that it doesn't hurt more

And it hurts that it doesn't hurt like it should

And it hurts that I thought you were perfect

But never managed to feel it

God, I wish I could

And I just wish you understood

That it hurts that it doesn't hurt more

And it hurts that it doesn't hurt like it should

And it's hard to walk away

But if the roles were reversed

I'd hope that you would
