Hurt More Later
Embracing Love's Inevitable Pain
Lyrics
Conversation comes naturally
Initiating a conversation is a natural process.
He holds your hand real carefully
The person is cautious and gentle while holding hands.
Butterflies are fluttering
Experiencing the nervous excitement of butterflies in the stomach.
Your courage is sputtering
Feeling a lack of confidence or hesitation, as courage falters.
Cuz you never win
The individual anticipates failure or disappointment in love.
You're finally there
Reaching a significant point in a relationship.
When your heart starts to wear
As the relationship progresses, the emotional toll becomes evident.
Cuz you know how this ends
Awareness of the inevitable outcome, leading to emotional distancing.
Passion fades, you pretend
Acknowledging the fading of passion, maintaining a facade of happiness.
So you're walking away
Choosing to end the relationship to preserve an idealized version.
To let perfection remain
Preferring to leave things unchanged, seeking perfection in memories.
You'll never see this unwind
Accepting that the consequences will never unfold or become apparent.
Your love frozen in time
Love is preserved in a frozen state, devoid of change.
You try your best to take it slow
Attempting to slow down the pace of the relationship.
But it feels good to lose control
Finding pleasure in relinquishing control despite the consequences.
It's moving faster everyday
The relationship is gaining momentum rapidly.
You wish it could just stay this way
Wishing for the current state of happiness to be perpetual.
But you know it won't
Realizing the impermanence of the blissful moment.
You're finally there
Revisiting the significant point where emotions become strained.
When your heart starts to wear
Experiencing the emotional toll as the heart becomes weary.
Cuz you know how this ends
Acknowledging the predictable outcome due to fading passion.
Passion fades, you pretend
Maintaining a pretense of passion despite its diminishing presence.
So you're walking away
Choosing to walk away to preserve an idealized version of the relationship.
To let perfection remain
Opting for stasis, allowing an unchanging perfection to persist.
You'll never see this unwind
Acceptance that the unfolding of consequences will remain unseen.
Your love frozen in time
Love is frozen in time, untouched by the passage of events.
It hurts now but it will hurt more later
Current pain is acknowledged, with the anticipation of greater pain in the future.
It hurts now but it will hurt more later
Emphasizing the expectation of intensifying pain in the future.
Hurt more later
Highlighting the recurring theme of increased pain over time.
Much more much later
Underlining the inevitability of more significant pain in the distant future.
