yeah, you, as in me

The prick hurts worse than the wound

The band-aid hurts worse than the blade

The bullet doesn’t sting like the bully

That beat you deep down in your brain

If only you’d not been so bruised

Then you wouldn’t feel each subtle whipping

With every single snap of his whistle

You felt it deep in your innards

When you tried to let go of the man,

who made you feel less than him

It took thousands of pounds worth of wisdom

To finally to flip the script

And now that you’re back on your own

It’s hard to rebuild what he been damaged

And undo the dirt that he spilt

And relearn what really matters

If only you’d known it’d be this difficult

You’d never bought into it his shit

You would have left at his first little tantrum

And that moment would have been it

Somehow you thought you could change him

And not let him hurt so fcking much

But now that it’s yours to live with

The memories worse than the touch
