Unhurt

[Verse 1]

Hurt was here before we were

Someone you love will eventually disappoint you

Maybe even break your heart or hurt your feelings

This will happen

Accept it

Sometimes repeatedly oftentimes

Repeatedly

We will be hurt

And it will feel lonesome and sickening

And you will wonder what has gone mad in the world

You will question everything

Beginning with yourself

You may even wish you owned a rifle

A knife

A proper fist

The perfect word to scar an inside

But you will cry

Someone will hurt you today

Tomorrow

The next day

Three years from now

And you will love them one day

You will love them for it

There's this thing

This twisted appreciation for suffering

You can only know love through the lens of neglect

Joy through the lens of pain

And it's fascinating, actually

How we wound with our wounds

And call it humanity

The first time you hurt someone you love

You will question the last time you tended an open wound

You will vow to never do it again

You may even pray to some god

Some Yemaya

Some universe

Anyone listening for forgiveness

Or the greatest death

You will not care at all

Be prepared

Be prepared, for a hurting is coming

And it will come and it will take you suddenly

And maybe you will be dancing

Or laughing

Or remembering

Maybe you won't even notice it at all

And you will hurt yourself

You will hurt yourself with all this hurt thought

And you will love

Hurting

And you will love

"No one really wants to hurt"

You will say

"No one really wants to hurt"

And it will turn from blame

To revelation

"I don't really want to hurt"

And you will love

Did you know that?

Did you know you will love?

Never mind the who

Never mind the when

It's of no importance

You will love

And it will unhurt us

All
