Hurt Somebody

Taking 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
 And I let the rules bend
 When I know that all along they're made to break
 Hey, hey
 You got me searching for reasons
 To keep me from leaving
 And that I have trouble breathing
 I give myself another chance to stay, ay
 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, mmm
 One day before you know it, you will see
 All of the pain and all the irony, yeah
 You'll feel the stinging, and 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, oh
 Hold me close, and I won't leave (I won't leave)
 'Cause it hurts when you hurt somebody, yeah
 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 (Somebody)
