[ Featuring CHAI ]
Somebody hurts us we carry that hurt and pass it on
I've done it too I met someone and left a lasting scar
It's deja vu every time I hit the eject button
This song's a sequel to His Pain
Adam grew up,
It's been a while since he's been to church
He tries not to judge people but instincts kick in first
He put up a wall around him have everyone stay at arms reach
Masking paranoia he's walking through it all calmly
Hands in his pockets while searching for somebody
Some truth, some meaning, some sign that we're here for some reason
Other than,
(Love)
Cause he won't trust that
He leaves before anyone leaves him
Terrified of needing anyone cause they'll leave him
If he can't be whole by himself so he's getting high every evening
Always on the edge as he's battling with these demons
It'll be alright is the spell he puts himself on
Then one day.......
He met a woman who knew how to sooth His Pain
Sharing cigarettes and walking through city streets
Adam knew with her his fragile heart could be safe
Somebody hurts us we carry that hurt and pass it on
I've done it too I met someone and left a lasting scar
It's deja vu every time I hit the eject button
All is left is a song
Somebody hurts us we carry that hurt and pass it on
I've done it too I met someone and left a lasting scar
It's deja vu every time I hit the eject button
All is left is a song
Her hands soft and her words even softer
He was slow to open up but she didn't mind
She smiled often, they walked around where ever they feet took'em
Danced on the streets whenever they heard music
Every time they talked a beautiful conversation
Eye to eye heart to heart a vulnerable relaxation
She had a man but she said it was ok
He said he can't love her and she said it was ok
He's getting paranoia though she's saying it's ok
Both of their friends saying it won't be ok
She's saying this is rare and she don't wanna let go
He needs a place to rest and it's her, in her arms,
He can let go of his anxiety
When he's with her he doesn't have to fake sanity
But each day a presentiment of catastrophe grows
Adam gets scared now he's tryna let go
Now she's cryin' and she's beggin' and she's cussin' him out
If you hate me f*ckin' say it man what is this about
He couldn't explain, saying that he couldn't shake doubts
Of how the two of them can't be and how it all will go south
"Quit worrying 'bout tomorrow boy look straight in my eyes
If you got tired of me I'll leave but if it's fear please realize
You gotta trust, your heart, to be in the moment
But if this the way you do then it's for you to decide"
After a while silence fell upon'em like first snow
The cigarette ran out and he's saying it's time to go
Somebody hurts us we carry that hurt and pass it on
I've done it too I've met someone and left a lasting scar
The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved in return
The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved in return
