Nothing Hurts Like Love Hurts

Nothing hurts like love hurts
Nothing else helps when it's gone
Nothing's worse and there's nothing better
You're either love's prince or its pawn

I have had it and held it
I have sung love's bitter song
I have squandered ephemeral moments
And God knows I've tasted love's wrongs

There's not a day I don't miss you
Not a day I don't hate you too
My toxic, exquisite, desperate mess
It was always you, we always knew

Nothing hurts like love hurts
Nothing else helps when it's gone
Nothing's worse and there's nothing better
You're either love's prince or its pawn
