Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh my, I love this boy
He plays the captain, I play the toy
And he runs me all over town
He takes me up and then he brings me down
[Verse 2]
He holds my hand and then he takes the bike
I wear my confidence and dims my light
But it's in my body and in my brain
Wonder could handle and feel the pain
[Verse 3]
Why does it hurt so good?
You don't treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good?
I just want you to tell me
[Verse 4]
Why does it hurt so good?
You don't treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good?
I just need you to tell me why
[Verse 5]
It's an addiction that I cannot fight
Don't wanna stop, don't wanna make it right
This man is strong, you know it's such a thrill
Hey plays a hunter and I play his kill
[Verse 6]
And if I ever try to turn away
He gets excited and it makes me stay
But it's a drug that never numbs the pain
And I'm the only one to blame so
[Verse 7]
Why does it hurt so good?
You don't treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good?
I just want you to tell me
Why does it hurt so good?
You don't treat me like you should
Does it hurt so good?
I just need you to tell me why
