I Don't Hurt As Much As I Used To - Jerry Schmitt

Have you ever wondered about our old Nu-metal friends and what became of them? Turns out I saw them a couple of days ago They were laughing and drinking and smoking and singing I'd rather not, let's just say I'm starving myself I don't want no savior baby, I just wanna have a good time Oh, oh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be And they said, "Hey Nate, yeah, it's been a while, Are you gonna sing?" And I began to smile and I said "You should've seen me a couple of years ago, I was laughing and drinking and smoking and singing." It's such a gas when you bring up the past I don't want no savior baby, I just wanna get it out Oh oh, oh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be Oh oh, oh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be At least I'm not as sad as I used to be Just get it out Doo doo doo Wooh ooh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be And they said we would've seen you two years ago Had you stuck around or come out to a show But youth's taken over by rock and roll While we were laughing and drinking and smoking and singing So I left, that is it That's my life, nothing is sacred I don't keep friends, I keep acquainted I'm not a prophet but I'm here to profit That's all, I'm gone! That's my life, nothing is sacred I don't fall in love, I just fake it I don't fall in love, I don't fall in love

We've been living in the shadows everyday (Everyday) Are we ever gonna learn from our mistakes? (Our mistakes) Our innocence, our ignorance, were lost but they'll be found The innocence of years we spent I remember the days, between the past and the pain We were never afraid of places unknown There was nothing to fear, there was faith in the air We would never be scared of letting go What happened to the world I used to know? (I used to know, I used to know) What happened to the world I used to know? (I used to know, I used to know) What happened to the world I used to know? We've been given all these chances everyday (Everyday) Another step to take, and this could change (This could change) Our innocence, our ignorance were lost but they'll be found The innocence of years we spent I remember the days, between the past and the pain We were never afraid of places unknown There was nothing to fear, there was faith in the air We would never be scared of letting go What happened to the world I used to know? Even though it's not the same Remember when we made our first steps It's always just a thought away Holding on to never forget I still feel it now I remember the days, between the past and the pain We were never afraid of places unknown There was nothing to fear, there was faith in the air We would never be scared of letting go What happened to the world I used to know? (I used to know, I used to know) What happened to the world I used to know? (I used to know, I used to know) We've been living in the shadows everyday (Everyday) Are we ever gonna learn from our mistakes? What happened to the world I used to know?

Last night I cried myself to sleep For the one that makes me weep I dried my eyes to greet the day, And wondered why I had to pay The tears that I have shed by day Give relief and wash away The memory of the night before I wonder if I'll suffer more I wonder if I care as much As I did before...

Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine I don't care if the bells don't chime Just as long as you love me And I don't care if the tops don't spin I don't care if the gins won't gin Just as long as you love me So darling, let it rain, let it snow Let the cold north winds blow Just as long as you love me North or south, east or west You know I will stand the test Just as long as you love me Well, I don't care if the birds don't sing I don't care if the bells don't ring Just as long as you love me And I don't care if the world don't turn I don't care if the fires won't burn Just as long as you love me So darling, let it rain, let it snow Let the cold north wind blow Just as long as you love me North or south, east or west You know I will stand the test Just as long as you love me Oh, darling, just as long as you love me

Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine I don't care if the bells don't chime Just as long as you love me And I don't care if the tops don't spin I don't care if the gins won't gin Just as long as you love me So darling let it rain, let it snow Let the cold north wind blow Just as long as you love me North or south, east or west You know I will stand the test Just as long as you love me Well, I don't care if the birds don't sing I don't care if the bells don't ring Just as long as you love me I don't care if the world don't turn I don't care if the fire don't burn Just as long as you love me So darling let it rain, let it snow Let the cold north wind blow Just as long as you love me North or south, east or west You know I will stand the test Just as long as you love me Oh darling, just as long as you love me
