I called you brazen

called you whore right to your face

and watched you silently

and publicly disgraced

I didn't notice

when you strengthened like a vice

that you were trembling

and burned beneath the ice



why don't you weep

when I hurt you?

why don't you weep

when I cut you?

you don't bleed

and the anger builds up inside

why don't you weep

when I hurt you?

why don't you weep

when I cut you?

you don't bleed

and the anger builds up inside



you said a prayer

and I betrayed you with a kiss

I never realized that all

had come to this

so keep your dignity

don't throw it all to waste

stronger feelings

than you've ever learned to face



Repeat chorus
