What is that fallin' out of your eyes

What is that rollin' on down your shit

Thunder and lightning from the bloodshot skies

This time its feeling like a permanent hurt



What is that lipstick up on his sleeve

Wheres the forgiveness thats stronger than dirt

Tearin' the words out when you ask him to leave

This time its gonna be a permanent hurt



A permanent hurt, yeah a pemanent hurt

The pain and the memories do the dirty work

Promises broken hearts on red alert

The surface will heal

But its feelin' like a permanent hurt



What were you thinkin when you fell in love

What were you thinkin in that little black skirt

Bet you a rainbow you werent thinkin of

Suffin' your heels up on a permanent hurt



A permanent hurt, yeah a pemanent hurt

The pain and the memories do the dirty work

Promises broken hearts on red alert

The surface will heal

But its feelin' like a permanent hurt



It's all temporary like the big book tells

Ashes to ashes, baby dirt to dirt

Something gets scary

Someone runs like hell

Somebody winds up with a permanent hurt



A permanent hurt, yeah a pemanent hurt

The pain and the memories do the dirty work

Promises broken hearts on red alert

The surface will heal

But it's feeling like a permanent hurt
