Lyrics:

Hope lifes been good to you
since youve been gone
Im doin fine now--Ive finally moved on
Its not so bad--Im not that sad

Im not surprised just how well I survived
Im over the worst, and I feel so alive
I cant complain--Im free again

[Chorus:]
And it only hurts when Im breathing
My heart only breaks when its beating
My dreams only die when Im dreaming
So, I hold my breath--to forget

Dont think Im lyin cryin at night
Theres no need to worry, Im really all right
Ive never looked back--as a matter of fact

[Repeat Chorus]

It only hurts when I breathe

Mmm, no, Ive never looked back--
as a matter fact

[Repeat Chorus]

Hurts when Im breathing
Breaks when its beating
Die when Im dreaming
It only hurts when I breathe
