to the people i hurt

hear you say you're lonely inside

don't fake the reason

baby

i know i'm why

a trillion sorries won't make it right

you won't change your mind

about that weekend night

i did too much damage

i could never deny

i had to see with my eyes

that maybe it ain't worth that fight

if i could make it right

i would take your pain and make it mine

'cause everybody hurts somebody sometimes

and we know that we do but do we know the reasons why?

i got it from you

you got it from who?

and what did they do to you?

guess everybody hurts somebody sometimes

being a kid from the midwest

i learned a lot about the ways not to be

and you know what i mean by that

used to get tattoos and my grandma would say to me

if i don't stop now then i'll never get a real job

my friends were in the basement

my grandpa worked the dayshift

found out my dad had a girlfriend

and my mom didn't know but i heard her cry

in the shower that morning

i had to see with my eyes

that maybe it ain't worth that fight

if i could make it right

i would take ya pain and make it mine

'cause everybody hurts somebody sometimes

and we know that we do but do we know the reasons why?

i got it from you

you got it from who?

and what did they do to you?

guess everybody hurts somebody sometimes

to the people i hurt

to the people i hurt

i was hurting

to the people i hurt

to the people i hurt

i was hurting

to the people i hurt

to the people i hurt

i was hurting

to the people i hurt

to the people i hurt

i was hurting

everybody hurts somebody sometimes

and we know that we do but do we know the reason why?

i got it from you

you got it from who?

and what did they do to you?

guess everybody hurts somebody sometimes
