Dead Poet Society - Hurt Lyrics
Official




You need to get outta your head
You're killing yourself again
You better get what you want
You only get one shot
You're lighting yourself on fire
You know you aren't going any higher
This is what you want but why?
You coulda been just fine

Are you insane, how you're dealing with your money situation?
You'll be running for the rest of your life
You can take this any way you want, tell me
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?

I know that I have my doubts
So why you gotta call me out?
Tell me it'll be just fine
You're outta your goddamn mind
The voices in my head grow loud
I don't know how to shut them out
This is what you want but why?
You coulda been just fine

Are you insane, how you're dealing with your money situation?
You'll be running for the rest of your life
You can take this any way you want, tell me
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
Are you insane, how you're dealing with your money situation?
You'll be running for the rest of your life
You can take this any way you want, tell me
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?

Are you insane, how you're dealing with your money situation?
You'll be running, you'll be running, you'll be-
Are you insane, how you're dealing with your money situation?
You'll be running, you'll be running, you'll be-

Are you insane? Look at how you're living
Is it what you really wanted, what you really wanted?
You've been waiting on a miracle and you've gotta let it go
Tired and afraid, the reality of getting old
It's our legacy, and you will never make it out, no
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?

Are you insane, how you're dealing with your money situation?
You'll be running for the rest of your life
You can take this any way you want, tell me
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
Why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
(You threw it all away) why the hell would you hurt yourself for this?
You threw it all away
