(chorus)
I won’t let them hurt you
I won’t let them make you cry
You’ve wept enough for a lifetime
And if you tell me you haven’t you lie

Save your tears for the one person
Who won’t make you feel sorrow
Because that’s the one who is worth it
All your blood and tears of tomorrow
I hear you sobbing late at night
And it cuts into me so deep
Like a cats fangs into a dying rat
Even after I’ve fallen asleep

So I won’t let them hurt you
I won’t let them make you cry
You’ve wept enough for a lifetime
And if you tell me you haven’t you lie

You’re so pretty to me both on the outside and in
Your beauty shouldn’t be soiled
By tear stained cheeks or a cracked up voice
Your happiness must never be spoiled
I don’t understand why they treat you like they do
Are they envious or just ugly on the inside?
Your light shines bright and makes theirs seem so dim
So they do their best to tear away your pride

But I won’t let them hurt you
I won’t let them make you cry
You’ve wept enough for a lifetime
And if you tell me you haven’t you lie

(spoken) And somehow you make me a better person
and I wrote this as I spat in their food at work

...

okay fine, I didn't really... but I thought about it. ALOT.
