Instrumental, Karaoke in Key of Bb Major
Instrumental by Jaston Hawes

Hurt Me Once is one of my favorite songs from Ben Platt's album. I've always loved singing it and since I couldn't find a good instrumental for it, I decided to make one. I did 99% of the song by ear, I believe everything is mostly accurate. :-)

Feel free to use for covers, or projects. Just make sure to credit me here.

Software Used: FL Studio, Pinnacle Studio 20
Instruments: Piano, Electric Piano, Guitar, Bass Guitar,Synth Strings/Wind, Hand Drum.

Lyrics:

I'm sure it was nothing
But you never used to bring somebody else along
Used to be our thing
Going to a movie, then we wander home
All these little landmines
All these little things that one can read two ways
Like when you take every call outside
Seems that I've forgotten how to read your face
But I know you too well to get it wrong

If you have to hurt me, hurt me once
If you have to end it, get it done
You have all these choices, I have none
You're all that I have to lose
Couldn't hurt you if I wanted to
I've decided on you

If you keep it going
Then one by one, the memories will start to blur
You'll ruin the good ones
But I guess my photo album's none of your concern
Don't humor me with kindness
There's nothing kind about a hundred small betrayals
If you love me at all, you'll kill it now

If you have to hurt me, hurt me once
If you have to end it, get it done
You have all these choices, I have none
You're all that I have to lose
Couldn't hurt you if I wanted to
I've decided on you, I've decided on you

And if I'm disappointed
It's 'cause you're not the person I knew
If I had it my way, I'd be kinder than you
I'm sure I'll forgive you, and soon
I'm ashamed that I'm proud of it, too
I decided on you
