I wish I could keep you from abusing yourself
For no reason at all
Counting backwards things you endured
Pitting them up against happier livesThat's not the way to hurt me
I'll show you the way to hurt meIn search of a soft sound from another planet
In search of a quiet place to lay this to rest
Striving for goodness while the cruel men win
There's no part of me left that can feel or hear it
They'll never let you hurt me
I'll never let you hurt me
