"Magnificent Hurt" Lyrics
After talking in tongues I began to preach
What falls from the branch is an apple or peach
Hold on to me there's a red alert
It's the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I took a little walk, I took another stimulant
I shed a single tear for my predicament
Don't act surprised or insolent
It's the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
When we first met, I knew you were beautiful
You fit like the seat of a blue mohair suit
And the pain that I felt let me know I'm alive
And I opened my heart
To the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I speak low and intimate
Like a cardboard sophisticate
What if this is true love?
Not some town hall certificate
It's the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I stood at the door, and I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my amen
And I swore there and then as I feign and I flirt
I unbuttoned my shirt
To the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
To the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
It's the way you make me feel
It's the way you make me feel, magnificent
. . .

Lyrics
After talking in tongues, I began to preach
What falls from the branch is an apple or peach
[Rachel] 舌を出してその場しのぎ 愛らしいその小芝居 未来みたいなシナジー 視線の奥にはまだ無い轍 可愛いと悲しいは紙一重 分からないならその先に飛べ タイミングは遅かれ早かれ 分からないならそこの神に問え 2つの演技 かける天秤 から回るまでふかすエンジン 僕には無い責任 君の形に塗りつぶしたステンシル なんだって知ってるし どこにだって行ける僕たち
It’s the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
[Mamiko] これまたまた昔のハナシ 想定外な僕の目をちょろまかし 赤い空の下もうどうすりゃいい いうなればこれ若気の至り 枝からりんご落ちる時 僕の心もまた落ちこみ 時々分かんなくなる 故に君に夢中全て捧げていた 理解したい 刺激剤を飲んで歩く 君は一歩リードいつだって いつだって君は僕を笑う こりゃ見事なほどの痛みだ
It’s the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I stood at the door, and I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my amen
And I swore
どうしようもない きみがその気にさせる時 振り回されにいってる 笑えよ どうしようもない きみがその気にさせた時 痛いよ クセになってる バカなのはどっち
It’s the way you make me feel, magnificent hurt
I stood at the door, and I almost went through with it
Tight as the angle of my amen
And I swore
どうしようもない きみがその気にさせる時 振り回されにいってる 笑えよ 美しすぎるきみ 許しはじめた心と身体 もう止まることはない 刺激的さ ああ痛いな
