The One That Hurt Me

You know you hurt me but I ain't saying no names
Ain't displaying no shame or playing no games
What I'm saying's so plain but it's hard to express
Left scars on my flesh, tore the heart from my chest
Your words and actions drew blood and in reaction I blew up
I am the one you love but you have put me through much
This is to the one that hurt me, you know I just dread
The pain you once fed, remember I once said,
"Pain only lasts moments but remains in our genetics
As to add to our experiences and then we won't forget it"
So it's like I'm tortured with it at all hours of late night
Sometimes til day light, wondering what to say right
It's not just your fault, we both share the blame
I can't compare the pain but I still care the same
I stand with fear restrained and set aside the struggle
You hurt me and I hurt you but know deep inside I love you!
