People hurt people

Verse 1 , male
She walked in with a broken heart,
Eyes filled with tears, but she hid the scars.
Words came out sharper than she meant,
A cycle of pain that she couldn't prevent.
[Female]
He closed his eyes to the storm inside,
Held his anger, but he couldn’t hide.
Fighting demons he never chose,
Hurt people hurting, that’s how it goes.

Chorus Duet 
Hurt people hurt people, that's the truth we fear,
But the pain is just a shadow, it won't last here.
We’re all just healing, piece by piece,
The darkness fades, and the soul finds peace.
Pain is temporary, love can mend,
We’ve got to break the cycle, make it end.

Verse 2 male voice
They lash out, like thunder in the night,
Afraid of the quiet, too scared of the light.
Each one a prisoner of their own regret,
But it's never too late to forgive and forget.

She holds her breath, waiting for the storm to end,
He says he's sorry, though he can’t pretend.
We're all just human, tripping on our way,
But we can rise up, find a brighter day.

Chorus,  Duet 
Hurt people hurt people, that's the truth we fear,
But the pain is just a shadow, it won't last here.
We’re all just healing, piece by piece,
The darkness fades, and the soul finds peace.
Pain is temporary, love can mend,
We’ve got to break the cycle, make it end.

Bridge
We can find the strength to heal,
Build a love that’s soft and real.
We’ve all been bruised, but we can rise,
Let go of hate, and see the skies.

Chorus Duet 
Hurt people hurt people, that's the truth we fear,
But the pain is just a shadow, it won't last here.
We’re all just healing, piece by piece,
The darkness fades, and the soul finds peace.
Pain is temporary, love can mend,
We’ve got to break the cycle, make it end.

Outro
The pain is temporary, love will stay,
We can find our way, we’ll be okay.
