Halsey-Hurt Feelings Lyrics

Halsey-Hurt Feelings Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My dad is almost home, I can't tell time yet but I know

Because the air becomes electric and my mother cleans the stove

We're walkin' through the door and both my eyes will find the floor

And I will search my brain to find something I might get yelled at for

He'll come in with a frown and tell me, "Sit your ass right down"

Or he might get his kicks from jokin' that he's just playin' around

And in a few years I will leave, but I will perpetually believe

That any man who says he loves me is hidin' somethin' up his sleeve

[Chorus]

Wash me in the water

You can cut off all of my hair

And I'll be changing like the weather

But I'll never be like him

[Verse 2]

The other girls date older guys and wear their T-shirts late at night

But everything I own that's oversize belongs to me, it's mine

And I don't have suggestions of all the earliest of years

You know my father isn't dead, but it don't feel like he's still here

It's strange now that he's greyin', gettin' older by the day

And my eyes tell me that he's harmless despite what my heart has to say

[Pre-Chorus]

So maybe just forget

Maybe move on don't regret

Or maybe this is just another trick

That hasn't happened yet

[Chorus]

Wash me in the water

You can cut off all of my hair

And I'll be changing like the weather

But I'll never be like him

[Post-Chorus]

'Cause blood is thick but water is forever

And I'm stiffer than a board, lighter than a feather

And that girl will be a problem only if you let her

And I left it back home but I can't help forget her

[Bridge]

I thought that it was my fault

And now sometimes I still do

You didn't chase me through the park

Now I'm chasin' after you

But I can't keep off the illusion

Oh, I can't find your point of view

Oh, I can't bear to fake a smile when you walk into the room

[Post-Chorus]

'Cause blood is thick but water is forever

And I'm stiffer than a board, lighter than a feather

And that girl will be a problem only if you let her

And I left it back home but I can't help forget her

[Chorus]

Wash me in the water

You can cut off all of my hair

And I'll be changing like the weather

But I'll never be like him

[Outro]

'Cause blood is thick but water is forever

And I'm stiffer than a board, lighter than a feather

And that girl will be a problem only if you let her

And I left it back home but I can't help forget her
