I’ve broken a dozen bones in my body. One of the lines in the song comes from a saying my dad would say when there was an injury, “It only hurts when I laugh”
Tuning: Half step down
Lyrics:
Fell off my bike, went off the rails
For a minute, I lost my mind
Words hit harder than pavement
I thought I was superman, but it hurt like hell
Broken bones and broken hearts
We all got our scars
Some of us heal and others hide
But it still hurts when I laugh
Got up, dusted myself off
Made sure no one saw me fall
I pretended like it was all good
It was til it came rushing back to me
Broken bones and broken hearts
We all got our scars
Some of us heal and others hide
But it still hurts when I laugh
Oh, did you think you were special?
To come away unscathed
Suck it up buttercup, this is life, get over yourself
But why does it still hurt inside?
