Lyrics

Suffer

[Verse 1]

Something deep inside of me

That when it comes it won't bring too much prolong

I don't know how hard it'll be when I suffer

Affection is a start for me

I hope it's gonna move on, move on

This time it's gonna be hard for me, yeah

I don't wanna suffer

[Pre-Chorus]

I fight it hard when it tears my heart

Oh when I want someone I gotta have someone

And when I come to the conclusion

So scared I don't want to fall

[Chorus] X4

Please don't make me suffer

Please don't make me suffer

[Verse 3]

Did he break his broken heart for you

Oh no mother, he never loved a single other person

This time it's gonna be hard for me, yeah

I don't want to suffer

[Pre-Chorus]

I fight it hard when it tears my heart

Oh when I want someone I gotta have someone

And when I come to the conclusion

So scared I don't want to fall

[Chorus]

Please don't make me suffer

Please don't make me suffer

I'm not hard enough, I'm not strong enough

Don't make me suffer
