Backstory:

This is a collaboration between myself and a lyricist who contacted me recently.  We made some tweaks to the lyrics and were shooting for a Hunter Hayes type of song.  Not sure we landed the plane there, but this is the result.

Lyrics:

                                                  
"Hurt Out Loud"

(v1)
I always thought being tough
Meant keeping things bottled up
Never let them see you cry
Or show what’s going on inside

(Pre-Chorus 1)
You make it easy to drop my guard
Cut the barbed wire around my heart

(Chorus)
I'm learning how to hurt out loud
Since you knocked my walls down
Exposed all my feelings
It goes against everything I've known
Such a sweet release to let it go
I am finally seeing
Girl, look at where you've got me now
I'm learning how to hurt out loud

(v2)
Now I know I don't have to be
The only one who carries me
Through the tough times in life
Trusting in you feels so right

(Pre-Chorus 2)
The cold and lonely I called truth
Was getting hard to hang on to

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
You’re teaching me its ok to show love
Cause being tough is opening up

(Repeat Chorus)
