[Verse 1]
You've been suffering
Hiding your pain
Unshed tears on the edge
"Just water under the bridge" you say

[Pre-Chorus]
Is it too late to make myself
A safe place?
I could not see the dangers
The sacrifices you were making

[Chorus]
Hurt you, hurt me
Hurt you, never meant to
Hurt you, hurt me
I need to make myself a safe place
For you to cry baby
'Cause sometimes
Big boys they need to cry

[Verse 2]
So we built you some wings
To help you to flee
From your demanding
Dark Angel
And me
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it too late to make myself
A safe place?
I went too far
When we flew too close to our star

[Chorus]
It hurt you, hurt me
Hurt you, never meant to
Hurt you, hurt me
I need to make myself a safe place
For you to cry baby
To cry baby
'Cause sometimes
Big boys they need to cry
'Cause sometimes
Big boys they need to cry
