It Hurts Until It Doesn't Lyrics - When You Walk A Long Distance You Are Tired - Mothers

I felt alive for a little while 

But when I died 

I had the time to notice 

I was crushed by the weight of my own ego 

But never honest enough to say it 

I felt your love for a little while 

But never had the guts 

To give myself up 

I said that I could be just what you wanted 

As if I could ever keep a promise 

You have eyes in every room 

But you won't see me walk away 

Once I was 

More than just a song to play 

On your haunted tape 

I don't want to be away 

Could have sworn 

I heard you laughing in the doorway 

I don't like myself when I'm awake
