The lyrics reveal the agony of facing reality—how it "only hurts when your eyes are open"—implying that awareness magnifies pain. The repeated theme of broken dreams and hearts underscores the severity of emotional wounds inflicted when truth replaces comforting lies.

Through its poignant reflections, the song captures the universal feeling of being let down and the difficulty of moving on when love disintegrates 💔. Yet, amidst the sorrow, there's an acknowledgment of the necessity to endure this pain to ultimately find strength and closure 🌈.
It Only Hurts
Lyrics
Can hold my breath only for a little while
Until reality starts sinking in
Once again I'm settling for second best
Turn the page and skip
To the end to where I
Swore that I would try
Since the last time I crossed that line
In the back of my mind I know
It only hurts when you're eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets opened
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
Miles away promise from a burning bed
Two worlds should never collide
One word would end it if you ever heard
Tear the page out that
Reminds me when I
Swore that I'd be strong now the next
Time has come and gone
Well maybe I'm wrong I know
It only hurts when you're eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets opened
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
I know what you're feeling
Its hard to believe in
Someone, someone, who's not there
I know that you're waiting
Cause love is worth saving
But only for So long, so long, so long
I swore that I would try
Since the last time, the last time
It only hurts when you're eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets opened
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
It only hurts when you're eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets opened
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
