This Is Gonna Hurt Lyrics
I've been living for too long
With a feeling something's wrong
Like a thorn stuck in my side
Just out of reach for me to pull it out
Now the picture's crystal clear
I can see that the end is near
We no longer to have pretend
All things have got to come to an end
This is gonna hurt
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
And they say what doesn't kill you
Well, I'm sure you know the rest
If you'd shut up for a second
I could get this off my chest
Cause I've been though way too much
And we've grown so out if touch
Now we can't see eye to eye
It's time to kiss goodbye
This is gonna hurt
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
This is gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
This is gonna hurt you
Can't you see the writing on the wall
One more step before I end it all
Closing my eyes, holding my breath
Finish it now, get it over with
Can't you see the writing on the wall
One more step before I end it all
Closing my eyes, holding my breath
Finish it now, get it over with
This is gonna hurt
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
That's how it's gonna be
That's how it's gonna be
That's how it's gonna be
With a feeling something's wrong
Like a thorn stuck in my side
Just out of reach for me to pull it out
Now the picture's crystal clear
I can see that the end is near
We no longer to have pretend
All things have got to come to an end
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
Well, I'm sure you know the rest
If you'd shut up for a second
I could get this off my chest
Cause I've been though way too much
And we've grown so out if touch
Now we can't see eye to eye
It's time to kiss goodbye
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
That's how it's gonna be
This is gonna hurt you
One more step before I end it all
Closing my eyes, holding my breath
Finish it now, get it over with
Can't you see the writing on the wall
One more step before I end it all
Closing my eyes, holding my breath
Finish it now, get it over with
This is gonna hurt you
This is gonna hurt you
More than it hurts me
And I don't wanna hurt
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's why I'm gonna hurt you
That's how it's gonna be
That's how it's gonna be
That's how it's gonna be

It's a song about an epic fight that leads to parting ways. About just reaching that breaking point and snapping, going postal.
For myself this is pretty much my "I'm done with you" song, relationships, friendships. Extending my hand out to help and being burned, I've had enough and this is going to hurt.
Or when I've been wronged so much by someone and saying nothing until I can't hold it in anymore.
