Brad Paisley pressing on a bruise

Select language to translate this lyric

[Featuring: Mat Kearney]
You were a pain, girl
A thorn in my side
Drove me insane, girl
A white knuckle ride
So why do I go lookin' through old photographs
Chase you down the hallway of our checkered past

Hold on for dear life and keep the fire fed
I ought to let go but instead...
It's like I'm pressing on a bruise
Cause if it still hurts
Right now that's all I've got left of you
Everybody knows that just makes it worse
But still I do
I could start a new life
I could move on
I could do a drive-by
And see if you're home
Now there's a fine fine line between a memory
And something any shrink would call an injury
But it's not over long as you're still hurting me
And as I turn onto your street
It's like I'm pressing on a bruise
Cause if it still hurts
Right now that's all I've got left of you
Anybody knows that just makes it worse
But still I do
Still I do
Still I do
Still love you
She's the kind of girl put your world on hold
Lock the house and you check your phone
Gave up the ghost and the ghost keeps holdin' on
You run from the sun but she cursed the rain
Lost her love so you nurse the pain
Going on and on and on
Singing that same song
But she's comin' along
Can't just let it heal
The broken heart and the bitter taste
No I can't just let it go
You light it up cause she'd burn you down
Can't just let it heal
Smokin' those memories (?)
It's like I'm pressing on a bruise
Yeah that's the thing about love and pain
