7:42 in the morning, 8 seconds before it all sinks in
Put your best face on for the world
Fake another smile and just pretend
But you're just putting off the pain
Nothing's ever really gonna change

So...let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take you right down to your knees
Let is burn to the worst degree
May not be what you want but it's what you need
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do its work
And let it hurt
Yeah let it hurt

3:28 in the morning, countin' up the spaces between the rain
You're getting used to the rocks at the bottom
Your heart goes numb but the lonely stays the same
That's the price you're bound to pay
And there's really nothing anyone can say
Oh there's only just one way

So...let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take you right down to your knees
let it burn to the worst degree
May not be what you but it's what you need
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do its work
So go on yeah let it hurt
Let it hurt

You might just find you're better for it
When you let go and you learn...

To let it hurt, let it bleed
Let it take you right down to your knees
Sometimes the only way around it
Is to let love do its work
So go on and let it hurt
Oh let it hurt
