Bleachers - Stop Making This Hurt Lyrics

Yeah

Daniel puts the kids to bed
They're screaming, "Oh, the gods must be crazy"
Well, Jimmy's on the road tonight
She doesn't recognize her country
My father's in the room next door
Crying with his ma at sixty-five
Well, every time I close my eyes
I just see you written in big lights

You know what it says?

Stop making this hurt
And say goodbye like you mean it
Stop trying on this hurt
Just say goodbye like you mean it
(Just say goodbye like you mean it)

My mamma's in the house tonight
Tryna break free of New Jersey
While the kids are on the street
And they're crying, "Let me live in my country"
But me and Ray
We got the dream and a car, we're like free as the night
So how come every time I take a drive
I just see it written on street signs?

And you know what it says?

Stop making this hurt
And say goodbye like you mean it
Stop trying on this hurt
Just say goodbye like you mean it
(Just say goodbye like you mean it)

But if we take the sadness out of Saturday night
I wonder what we'll be left with, anything worth the fight?
I wanna run from the darkness, wanna shout at the light
It's coming over me now
Two, three, four, five
Oh God, we barely survived

Just say goodbye like you mean it

Stop making this hurt
Say goodbye like you mean it (say goodbye like you mean it)
Just say goodbye like you mean it
Stop making this hurt (say goodbye like you mean it)
Say goodbye like you mean it (say goodbye like you mean it)
Just say goodbye like you mean it

Come on, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Stop making this hurt
