Lyrics:

And after all your dreams are done and paid for
There's nowhere left to run and nobody left worth staying for
And though I hate to be the one to bear such news
Seems like you're set to be the only one to lose

Little one, how can it be?
You hurt yourself but do not see
And everything you're breathing for
Will let you down and leave you sore
When I was bound to the bed post
I was doing what I could to make a change
Caught a sigh of indifference
When a certain feeling struck so strange
And while it was my wish to keep you from such pain
I regret to say my efforts were in vain
Oh, little one, how can it be?
You hurt yourself but do not see
And everything you're breathing for
Will let you down and leave you sore

You're sad, sad
I can't go without
You do it to yourself
So you can save your doubt
Little one, how can it be?
You hurt yourself but do not see
And everything you're breathing for
Gonna let you down and then it leave you sore
Little one, how can it be?
You hurt yourself but do not see
Your friends will hang you out to dry
They'll scrape your knees, and baby, make you cry
And everything you're breathing for
Will let you down and leave you sore
Little one, how can it be?
You hurt yourself but do not see
