Magnificent Hurt Songtext

von The Boy Named If

Magnificent Hurt Songtext
After talking in tongues
I began to preach
“What falls from the branch is an apple or peach”
Hold on to me
There’s a Red Alert

It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt

I took a little walk
I took another stimulant
I shed a single tear
For my predicament
Don’t act surprised or insolent

It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt

When we first me
I knew you were beautiful
You fit like the seat of a blue mohair suit
But the pain that I felt
Lеt me know I’m alive
And I openеd my heart

To the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt
I speak low and intimate
Like a cardboard sophisticate
What if this is true love
Not some town-hall certificate

It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent Hurt

I stood at the door and
I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my "Amen"
And I swore there and then
As I feign and I flirt
I unbuttoned my shirt

To the way you make me feel
Magnificent
Hurt

To the way you make me feel
Magnificent
Hurt


It’s the way you make me feel
It’s the way you make me feel
Magnificent
