Lyrics by Kenton Hall
Music by Kenton Hall, Mark Haynes, John McCourt & Brett Richardson

lyrics

I’m certain that this isn’t love
Although it shares its sadness and its shame
Between craving and hunger,
I’m not crying but I’m drawn towards the rain

But it’s not what you think, whatever this is
Won’t cut to the kink, or compete for the kiss
I’m back on the drink and I’ve worn out my wrist
Here on the brink of whatever this is
I know it’s going to hurt

I’m certain if I write it down,
It’ll turn around and bite me in the ass
But if I wait until I’m sober,
I know that the moment’s going to pass

But it’s not what you think, whatever this is
Won’t pass out the trinkets, or push for the tryst
I’m missing the link between broken and bliss
Here on the brink of whatever this is
I know it’s going to hurt

And if that’s our epitaph
Let’s save time and lead with that
Whatever works

I’m certain that you’d rather that
I keep my big mouth shut and my head down
At least you’re in no danger,
Your resistance rallies when I come around

And it’s not what you think, whatever this is
Won’t cut to the kink, or compete for the kiss
I’m back on the drink and I’ve worn out my wrist
Here on the brink of whatever this is
I know it’s going to hurt

I know it’s going to hurt…
I like it when it hurts.
