Someone Who Hurts

I’m doing it again, plastering the face on

Why is nobody asking me what’s wrong

Don’t you all know that I’m also a person

 

I’m doing it again, leaving my hair falling

Of course I know you will never ask me questions

Don’t you all know that I’m also a person

 

I can hurt, too

I can get worse, too

I need someone who can come through

Do these tears mean nothing to you

Do these streaks mean nothing to you

I’m also a person, I’m someone who hurts, too

I’m someone who hurts, too

 

I am working so hard to meet your expectations

It won’t do me any good unless I learn to change this

I should’ve started treating me like a person

 

How is anybody else supposed to catch the difference

Even if you all are always ready to listen

Don’t you all know that I’m also a person

 

I can hurt, too

I can get worse, too

I need someone who can come through

Do these tears mean nothing to you

Do these streaks mean nothing to you

I’m also a person, I’m someone who hurts, too

I’m someone who hurts, too

 

I’m doing it again

Catching my face with my hands

Leaving my hair falling

This is my protection

 

I’m doing it again

Forgetting that I have friends

The trauma must have been intense

I still don’t treat me like a person

 

I can hurt, too

I can get worse, too

I need someone who can come through

Do these tears mean nothing to you

Do these streaks mean nothing to you

I’m also a person, I’m someone who hurts, too

I’m someone who hurts, too

 

Do these tears mean nothing to you

Do these streaks mean nothing to you

I can get worse, too

I’m someone who hurts, too

I’m someone who hurts, too
