Always Hurt
No matter what happens to you or to everyone else,
I'm the one that always gets hurt.
I should be used to it,
But sometimes I'm not.
I brush off the pain,
Like it's dust on a shelf.
Hiding behind this mask, is my true feelings.
But a part of me doesn't know as if I should take it off.
They say I trust too easily,
They say I love too much,
They say thats how I always get hurt,
And that my heart's fragile to the touch.
They lie to me from the start,
That's their fault.
They should know better,
Unless their hamster wheel came to a hault.
They ask for help sometimes,
So I say okay.
I don't have to though.
Their problems, obviously, are not mine.
Yes, there were a couple of guys that hurt me,
Emotionally, not physically.
They're the ones I loved the most,
That's why it also hurt the most.
I was crushed,
I'm always falling for the ones that seem like they care,
But in the end, I'm hurt and they're gone.
They have already moved on.
Always hurt,
Sad to say.
It's true,
Especially when they say "I love you".
