HURT PEOPLE
when it was good, it was great
but you couldn't maintain the strain
of putting another's needs
of putting another's needs above your own
i never shed a tear
when you pushed me away
but i cried every time
you tried to win me back
to win me back
hurt people hurt people
who could help them heal
hurt people hurt people
who don't know how to deal
i've hurt and been hurt before
and so i know it's real
hurt people hurt people
when it hurts too much to feel
when i was good, i was great
but i couldn't untrain my brain
from putting another's needs
yeah, putting another's needs above my own
i only felt self-worth
when your gaze held high praise
so you knew i'd lose value
should you choose to look away
to look away, cuz
hurt people hurt people
who could help them heal
hurt people hurt people
who don't know how to deal
i've hurt and been hurt before
and so i know it's real
hurt people hurt people
when it hurts too much to feel
stuck on a loop, i can't
break the pattern
i've tried to end the cycle, but
it's too ingrained to change
your loss is mine to gain
your pain's my pain
we're all to blame, cuz
hurt people hurt people
who could help them heal
hurt people hurt people
who don't know how to deal
i've hurt and been hurt before
and so i know it's real
hurt people hurt people
when it hurts too much to feel
it hurts too much to feel
