Hurts 2B Human - P!nk ft. Khalid
The Experience: Without you I'd be losing... I need you to be there for me... and you are.
The Topic: Friendship. Love. Family.
The Value: Connection.
The Tension: God, it hurts to be human (Life is a lot of pain) VS. But I've got you... and you've got me (But family, friendship and love make it bearable).
Music video: P!nk and Khalid sing the same song from different apartments. The song connects them. And the apartment building connects them with everyone else, and the friendships, family and love that helps those people get through life.
The Meaning of Hurts 2B Human: P!nk and Khalid explore the beauty of authentic human relationships. By ourselves life is like walking down a road of broken glass. But hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder that hurt is bearable. With compassion: if you could spend a day in my shoes your mind would change if you knew what I've gone through. With help: without you I'd be losing. With healing: you're the only one that ever makes it stop. Together we can face down life's pain: now if we defeat all odds and it was us against the world you can count on me you know I'd have your back. We can't face life's hurt alone. But we can win the battle for connection. Together we can bear both our hurts.
Ask yourself: Why do some people walk alone? Why do we let them?

LYRICS:
[Pink]
Oh you make it sound so pretty
Even when it's not
Didn't choose but it's the only one we've got
And sometimes I get so tired
Of getting tied up in my thoughts
You're the only one that ever makes it stop
God, it hurts to be human
Without you I'd be losing
And someday we'll face the music
God, it hurts to be human
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
[Khalid]
Like we're buckled and preparing
For the crash
Like we're walking down a road
Of broken glass
Now if we defeat all odds
And it was us against the world
You can count on me
You know I'd have your back
[Pink and Khalid]
God, it hurts to be human
Without you I'd be losing
And someday we'll face the music
God, it hurts to be human
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
But I've got you
You, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
Hope floats away
If you could spend a day in my shoes
Your mind would change
If you knew what I've gone through
We want the same (Yeah, we do)
Maybe then you'd understand
How it hurts to be human (No)
God, it hurts to be human
Without you (Without you)
I'd be losing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And someday we'll face the music
God, it hurts to be human
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
Oh God, it hurts to be human
Oh you make it sound so pretty
Even when it's not
Didn't choose but it's the only one we've got
And sometimes I get so tired
Of getting tied up in my thoughts
You're the only one that ever makes it stop
God, it hurts to be human
Without you I'd be losing
And someday we'll face the music
God, it hurts to be human
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
[Khalid]
Like we're buckled and preparing
For the crash
Like we're walking down a road
Of broken glass
Now if we defeat all odds
And it was us against the world
You can count on me
You know I'd have your back
[Pink and Khalid]
God, it hurts to be human
Without you I'd be losing
And someday we'll face the music
God, it hurts to be human
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
But I've got you
You, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
Hope floats away
If you could spend a day in my shoes
Your mind would change
If you knew what I've gone through
We want the same (Yeah, we do)
Maybe then you'd understand
How it hurts to be human (No)
God, it hurts to be human
Without you (Without you)
I'd be losing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And someday we'll face the music
God, it hurts to be human
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
But I've got you
You, you, you, you, hey (Hey)
And you've got me
Me, me, me, too
Oh God, it hurts to be human
