Can you give me solid ground,
Can you give me free advice
And I can blast friendship to hell
Or I can try to make things better
They change the rules when it's my turn
So they can laugh and watch me burn
I should ignore the words you say
'Cause they can hurt, but won't kill me
They can hurt, but won't kill me
They can hurt, but won't kill me
A fist full of the things you love
Life's a quiz so cough it up
Go on and cough it up now
When the future's far away
It's always better than today
And everytime I'm having fun
There's something I'm doing wrong
And all these warning lights are lit
But always after you need
I should ignore the words you say
They can hurt, but won't kill me
They can hurt, but won't kill me
They can hurt but won't kill me
Yeah I'd better try to laugh
You know you'll never see me cry
I should ignore the words you say
They can hurt, but won't kill me
'Cause they can hurt, but won't kill me
