See the lyrics to “Doesn’t Hurt Anymore” by John Trudell was released on April 11, 1980, as part of the album British Steel by Judas Priest.
I think about how I’m doing
But I don’t know what I’m thinking
Shattering into shadow lightReflecting thoughts I can’t relieve
My heart doesn’t hurt anymore
But my soul does, maybe
That’s what souls are for, to
Take the hurt the heart can’t take
The heart can’t takeDistance playing tag playing tricks
With whatever it is I can’t find
My weakness’s are my band-Aids
Covering for how I don’t bleedIn all the stones I threw
Some were for flinging
Some were for bringing
And some I never knew
I never knewMy heart doesn’t hurt anymore
But my soul does, maybe
That’s what souls are for, to
Take the hurt the heart can’t takeLiving painted into a picture
Dripping off all these paintings
The colors of emotion
Seeking any kind of devotionSome things are private
Between me and the dead
And some of the rest
Is better off left unsaidMy heart doesn’t hurt anymore
But my soul does, maybe
That’s what souls are for, to
Take the hurt the heart can’t take
The heart can’t takeMy heart doesn’t hurt anymore
But my soul does, maybe
That’s what souls are for, to
Take the hurt the heart can’t take
The heart can’t take
