"Hurt People" lyrics

"Hurt People"

Putting out the chairs
In the basement of a church
Hurt people
Hurt people
Hurt people

I go and take my place
In the human race
With hurt people
Hurt people
Who hurt people

I don't want to change
I don't want to change
I don't want to change
I don't want to change
I don't want to change
I don't want to change
Those hurt people
Hurt people
Hurt people

Starting off the hour
With thoughts and prayers and higher powers
I am sorry
I am sorry
I am sorry

You'll find us everywhere
Smoking on the spiral stairs
Burnt coffee
Burnt coffee
Daytime TV

I don't want to change
I don't want to change
I don't want to change
No I don't want to change
I don't want to change
I don't want to change
Those hurt people
Hurt people
Hurt people

No need to hide my face
In my happy place
I was lonely
I was lonely
I'm not lonely anymore

'Cause looking out I see
Singing back at me
Hurt people
Hurt people
Hurt people

Being good as gold
