The ones who’ve hurt you lyrics

The hands and the lies and the things that they did

Have created a rift in your heart

And it’s too wide to span.

I am only one man

And my efforts have torn us apart.

I gave you all that a lover could give

And yet you couldn’t let me inside.

You said that you care, that the feelings were there,

But behind a wall where they hide.

And I don’t know what more I could have done to heal your heart.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

I want to really make them pay.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you

For stealing our chance at love away.

I gave you a ring and I wrote you a song,

And I tattooed your heart on my hand

Then I looked in your eyes

And hoped for a sign

That you loved your man.

I sang of our love from the tops of the trees,

And I wrote both our names in the sky.

Yet on the face of a book,

You advanced all the rooks,

Yet you left your king to die.

And I don’t know what more I could have done to heal your heart.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

I want to really make them pay.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

For stealing our chance at love away.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

I want to dearly make them pay.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

For stealing our chance at love away.

And so, I suppose, this is really goodbye.

God, I hope, that you saw how I tried.

And I envy the man who’ll be holding your hand

On that day your demons die.

I wish you all that love has to give,

It’s around you just all of the time.

’Cause love is a thing

Like a bird on the wing,

Once you break that cage inside.

And I don’t know what more I could have done to heal your heart.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

I want to really make them pay.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you

For stealing our chance at love away.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you,

I want to kill them with rage.

I want to hurt the ones who’ve hurt you

For making you this way.
