It's not that I don't try, it's that you won't again And it hurts too much to laugh about it (Yes it hurts too much to laugh about it) Hey, please think about it, friend. I know you're lonely, I'm here writing in the dark Tryin' to get the balls But it hurts too much to ask Dear I Need Someone Who's Lost, Tell me how not to stop all these tears and fears So nothing else will drop, So all this pain will stop. But if it hurts too much ask If it hurts too much to ask It's not that I don't cry, It's that I have to hide, Yeah it's that I have to hide So I won't be there to ask. So I won't be there to ask. No, I won't be the one to ask. I won't be there to ask. It hurts too much to laugh about it. Yes it hurts too much to laugh about it. Yes it hurts too much to laugh about it, man. --- Ask - Sharon Van Etten
