Hurt People

Hurt people hurt people's how it begins

And I don’t wanna cause you pain

This ain't the way that I thought we would live

When I start to feel like I'm in trouble again

I just keep it as friends ’cause I know how it ends

When I feel like I'll be the devil again

I'll sit back and pretend like we both never met

I found courage at 16 but lost it at 23

I'm not okay, I'm not okay

And I lost my self-esteem believing in a dream

I lost my faith, I lost my faith, oh-oh

Hurt people hurt people's how it begins

And I don't wanna cause you pain

This ain't the way that I thought we would live

You might think that I’m crazy

You might think you can save me

I wish it was that easy, oh-oh-oh

Hurt people hurt people, that’s how it ends

And I don't wanna cause you pain

No, I don’t wanna cause you pain

No, I don't wanna cause you pain

When our cracks appear and we fall in-between

Oh, you suddenly see this is far from your dreams

When the chaos comes and we're sleepless awake

I'm a slave to my ways

You deserve better days

You found courage at 16 and lost it when you had me

It’s not okay, it's not okay

So don't lose your self-esteem believing in a dream

And lose your way, don't lose your faith, oh-oh

Hurt people hurt people's how it begins

And I don't wanna cause you pain

This ain't the way that I thought we would live

You might think that I'm crazy

You might think you can save me

I wish it was that easy, oh-oh-oh

Hurt people hurt people, that's how it ends

And I don't wanna cause you pain

No, I don't wanna cause you pain

No, I don't wanna cause you pain

Why won't you hear me when I say

You're way too good for me anyway?

Why won't you hear me when I say

You're way too good for me anyway?

Hurt people hurt people's how it begins

And I don't wanna cause you pain

This ain't the way that I thought we would live, ooh

You might think that I'm crazy (Crazy)

You might think you can save me (Save me)

I wish it was that easy (Easy), oh-oh-oh

Hurt people hurt people, that's how it ends

And I don't wanna cause you pain

No, I don't wanna cause you pain

No, I don't wanna cause you pain

Cause you pain

I don't wanna cause you pain
