Discover the story of the song > Let’s Hurt Tonight – OneRepublic

The protagonist and his partner are exhausted and worn out, but instead of walking away from their love, they decide to stay and work through their problems together. They acknowledge that love can be painful, but they are willing to face that pain in order to strengthen their relationship. They want to be honest with each other and say everything they've been holding back, so they turn off the lights and lock the doors, refusing to leave until they both feel better.
