How long ago, how long ago
Have I forgotten to feel me?
But now I know, but now I know
This pain I feel is the real me
And I thank you for it, and I thank you for it

You made me hurt again, hurt again, hurt again
Made me remember when I loved the man I am
You made me hurt again, bleed again, feel again
And those who hurt again can also love again

And I thank you for the pain
The way it made me change
The way it made me fall, fall again

I've got lost in the days, counting the waves
Counting the ways I could leave here
But before I knew what's going on
It was you who gave me reason to feel fear
And I thank you for it, and I thank you for it

You made me hurt again, hurt again, hurt again
Made me remember when I loved the man I am
You made me hurt again, bleed again, feel again
And those who hurt again can also love again

How long ago, how long ago
Have I forgotten to feel me?
But now I know, but now I know
This pain I feel is the real me 

You made me hurt again, hurt again, hurt again
Made me remember when I loved the man I am
You made me hurt again, bleed again, feel again
And those who hurt again can also love again

And I thank you for the pain
The way it made me change
The way it made me fall, fall again
