You Won't Hurt Me Anymore Songtext
von Matt Kennon

You could have put a gun to my head
Could have stuck a knife in my back
I don′t think the devil himself
Would have talked to me like that
Guess I had to face the truth
So I could slam the door
But from now on
You won't hurt me anymore

Should have never gone on that bus
Should have never answered that phone
I buried your memory in the past
Just about 12 years ago
Can′t believe I let down my guard
Let you knock me to the floor
But I swear to you
You won't hurt me anymore


I always hoped that we could find
Some way to work things out
I always prayed that we could build some bridge to common ground
You don't know the hell it′s been without you in my life
But I have to tell myself I got to let you go this time

The call came in around ten
It should have brought me to my knees
A brother I ain′t even met
Had to break the news to me
They said they found the old man today
Behind the old liquor store
And now that you're gone
You can′t hurt me anymore

I always hoped that we could find
Some way to work things out
I always prayed that we could build a bridge to common ground
You don't know the hell it′s been without you in my life
Now I have to tell myself I got to let you go this time

You could have put a gun to my head
Could have put a knife in my back
