If we could always remember
 How it feels to love someone
 Hurtful words
 Would have [bad word] to be

Either full or withered
 Our hearts are always
 Pushing someone away, pulling them close
 Again, putting all the blame on the moment

Blurring away the faces of the ones we hurt
 We search again for love
 We are only kind because we want to be loved
 Acting without shame
 For that's what I believed humans are

Your words of love sounded
 Like a crying whisper
 Somehow I knew that one day your heart
 Will be [bad word] to itself

You're so kind to others that I can't help but
 Want you to care more about yourself
 Do you have enough heart left in you for yourself?

Don't look at me, it's my heart
 I'll use it for myself
 How can you love someone like me?

Your eyes would only shed tears
 Each time I lied for myself
 God knew this
 All of this would happen this way
 And so he made your eyes all the bigger

There he watched me, knowing it
 That I'd always love myself
 More than anyone, anything

Even though you knew, even though you knew
 You would tell me, the selfish me
 That you loved me
 More than anyone, more than anything

You did that without even realizing
 That was Called kindness

I wonder how much your heart
 your unselfish heart
 Could love yourself
 I wonder how much I
 Who you were always too kind to
 Could love "someone" else

Words were always
 Trying to reflect who the speaker is
 God, why did you make
 Words this close?

My heart always kept quiet
 Hiding behind my words
 God, why did you make
 a [bad word] so deep?

If my heart and words were to overlap,
 Were to [bad word] one
 Then many of these sad lies I gave you
 Would have been a gentler color

(I was here to tell you why)
 It's the same for all
 Everyone has "someone" just for them
 (You were here to tell me why)
 Then why don't I
 Exist for my "someone"?

Oh I know, this must be so
 you like yourself for
 "Having someone you love more than yourself"
 I can say now
 that I like the current me
 "The me who loves you more than myself"

The tear that people shed for another
 THAT is love's [bad word] testimony
 You're the one who taught me that
 The heart you created can now say
 "For someone else, that's for myself as well"
 And that's the way
 We should live
 That's what people do

I won't call that
 An act of kindness anymore

The heart you always had
 For others
 Has probably loved you too
 I wonder if I'll be able to love too
 Learn to be like you
 I wonder how many "someones" I can love

You cried, you really did cry
 As your heart screamed "cry"
 I pray and hope
 You won't hate me
 You loved me, you loved people so much
 So that your heart almost withered
 So I'll love your portion
 Love for you, until I wither

Your words of love sounded
 Like a crying whisper
 You always knew someday a heart
 Would save someone
