People tend to hurt others
Without being cautious,
Spilling out painful words
Causing harm unknowingly

Our hearts get broken.
The ones we trusted
Leave our hearts broken,
Heart full of anger and pain

Then we get angry at everyone
Causing them the same pain we experienced
We think everyone will hurt us too
Thinking everyone will make us suffer again

But aren't we all broken?
Full of anger to the world
Because of the pain we experienced
When all we did was to give everything and love

Is it wrong to love?
Or just giving love to a wrong person?
And now we're afraid to love again
Now all we want is to keep our hearts safe

But the only thing that will help us
Is to let our hearts be free
And be courageous enough
To give love again

Not everyone wants to hurt us
They just hurt us
Because just like us,
They've been hurt and broken

They are not aware
They'd caused you so much pain
They did not know that they are pushing away
Those who are truly loving them

Maybe they are just afraid too
To give love again
Just like you at the moment
Scared to try again and be hurt

But now you are aware
Now you understand the cycle
Do you still want to stay at the same spot?
Unintentionally hurting others and confining yourself?

How about you decide to be free
To understand others and their pain
The same with what you had experienced
And be the one to forgive, just like you want to be forgiven

Be the one who understands
When you're the one who needs to be understood
Give people a chance, and stop judging them
Just because you've seen one part of their lives

Do not let people to hurt you again
Do not take their words deeply
Do not let them cut your heart again
Use your brain to protect your heart

Open your eyes to see the whole picture
Be the healing you're longing for
And one day you'll finally receive
The healing you've been praying for
