Hurt The Good
Echoes of Pain: Unraveling the Depths of 'Hurt The Good' by Charlotte Sometimes
Lyrics
Andre, I once said
Referencing a conversation with Andre in the past
"Seems like a distant car" ?
Comparing something distant to the sound of a car
And while I heard these words
Reflecting on hearing those words
I took a number off the shelf
Metaphorically taking a number off a shelf, possibly representing making a decision or taking action
It don't matter my age
Stating that age doesn't matter in the context of self-reflection
'cause every time I saw myself
Feeling pain or discomfort upon self-reflection
It hurt to touch
Experiencing pain when physically touching oneself, likely metaphorical for emotional pain
My body bleeds all day
Expressing emotional pain and suffering throughout the day
What do they do
Questioning the actions or responses of others
They hurt the good
Others cause harm to what's good or positive
They hurt the truth
Others damage or harm the truth or honesty
The fool followed the cars
Describing someone behaving foolishly by following cars, possibly symbolizing chasing after something fleeting or unattainable
Seems like jaded show work?
Appearing worn out or tired due to cynicism or skepticism
I'm running out of time, I know
Feeling a sense of urgency or pressure due to running out of time
I adore is why?
Expressing admiration or affection for something
My body bleeds all day
Continuing to express ongoing emotional pain
What do they do
Rhetorical question about the actions of others causing harm
They hurt the good
Reiteration of others causing harm to what's good or positive
They hurt the truth
Reiteration of others damaging or harming the truth or honesty
They burn the only bridge in me
Metaphorically referencing the destruction of a vital connection or relationship within oneself
