Hurt Somebody

Takin' it slowly

I'm afraid to be lonely

Nobody told me

It's harder than I thought to tell the truth

It's gonna leave you in pieces

All alone with your demons

And I know that we need this

But I've been too afraid to follow through

Hold me close and I won't leave

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody

So much to say, but I don't speak

And I hate that I let you stop me

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody

Don't know where the time went

Stuck in the wrong mindset

I let the rules bend

When I know that all along they're made to break

You got me searching for reason

To keep me from leavin'

And that I have trouble breathin'

I give myself another chance to stay

Hold me close and I won't leave

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody

So much to say but I don't speak

And I hate that I let you stop me

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody

One day before you know it, you will see

All of the pain and all the irony

You'll feel the stinging, then you'll think of me

'Cause it hurts when you hurt

Hold me close and I won't leave

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody

So much to say but I don't speak

And I hate that I let you stop me

Hold me close and I won't leave

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody

So much to say but I don't speak

And I hate that I let you stop me

'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody
