How Can It Hurt - Marillion

Maybe you’re just too upset inside

To give it to me straight

Maybe you’ve become too angry and too close to crying

To say anything I can understand

Or maybe you’re just coming in over my head

Maybe you’re just too upset inside

Too upset inside

How can it hurt if I don’t understand

How can it hurt if I don’t understand

You’re never gonna square with me I know

So what is there to say?

There’s a million words that we could share tonight

Why do you walk away?

And I could write you off and it’s over with

Like a damaged car I can’t afford to fix

But everything inside me wants to heal your pain

You won’t explain, you won’t explain

How can it hurt if I don’t understand

How can it hurt if I don’t understand

How can I help if I don’t understand

How can it hurt, how can it hurt

Well I don’t understand
