Hope life's been good to you since you've been gone I'm doin' fine now--I've finally moved on It's not so bad--I'm not that sad I'm not surprised just how well I survived I'm over the worst, and I feel so alive I can't complain--I'm free again [Chorus:] And it only hurts when I'm breathing My heart only breaks when it's beating My dreams only die when I'm dreaming So, I hold my breath--to forget Don't think I'm lyin' 'round cryin' at night There's no need to worry, I'm really all right I've never looked back--as a matter of fact [Repeat Chorus] It only hurts when I breathe Mmm, no, I've never looked back-- as a matter fact [Repeat Chorus] Hurts when I'm breathing Breaks when it's beating Die when I'm dreaming It only hurts when I breathe
