Hurt People Lyrics

Watch me relapse

As I drink these city lights

I wanna know what it feels like

On the other side of the knife

Am I destined, to be a victim

To this crazy world?

A place where dreams of mortal needs

Are rarely ever earned and I'm singin

I know this, this much is true

Hurt People, Hurt People oh yeah

I got this from a bathroom wall

Hurt People, Hurt People

I've got a wicked heart

And I lack the will to share

I'm destined to repeat the things

That I don't repair

And the question, on my aching heart

Has God left me astray?

Why do I beg and plead for useless things

That I just throw away

And I question all I know

I question all I am

I know this, this much is true

Hurt People, Hurt People oh yeah

I got this from a bathroom wall

Hurt People, Hurt People

And the misery, loves company

Like a whisper to an old dear friend

Whom I haven't seen

Since that fateful night

When I tried to take my own damn life

It's just a phase, only a phase

And I know this

This much is true

I got this, from a bathroom wall

Watch me relapse

As I drink these city lights

I wanna know what it feels like

On the other side of the knife

I know this, this much is true

Hurt People, Hurt People oh yeah

I got this from a bathroom wall

Hurt People, Hurt People
