Title: You Know How To Hurt MeYou know how to hurt me
With your cutting jibes
You know how to cut me
With those bitchy vibesI thought we were friends
But friendships are falsehoods
They're just waiting for you to slip
A crucible of Goody GoodsYou know how to hurt me
Knowing just what to say
Opportunistic insulter
Snarky remarks; you've got a wayAnd these are the people I have counted as my 'mates'
These are the jerks I have called 'pals'
Rocking in and out of my life like a hurricane
And not understanding their rationalesSo yes, you know how to hurt me
When it's abundantly obvious how different I am
How very sensitive I am underneath the hard face
Well, I will not allow my heart to harden further. I will remain the lamb.
