Man meets boy
Shattered summer
Broken dreams
Too young to know
What he wants is so extreme
He held you down
Told you not to scream or cry
From that day forward, baby
You just wondered why
Oh child, it's not your fault
Don't rub your wounds with salt
He can't hurt you anymore
I am your friend
My love will be your cure
He can't hurt you anymore
Give me your hand
I'll help you fight your war
Coz he can't hurt you anymore
Man meets boy
Quiet churches
Empty streets
And secrets stored
Behind close doors
Between the sheets
Oh, no one knows till it's too late
The damage deepens
In the end something's beneath
The surface creeping
You held it in so long
I knew that something's wrong
He can't hurt you anymore
I am your friend
My love will be your cure
He can't hurt you anymore
Give me your hand
I'll help you fight your war
Coz he can't hurt you anymore
Baby, you're not alone
It's too late, the damage deepens
Don't turn your heart to stone
Something neath the surface creeping
He can't hurt you anymore
I am your friend
My love will be your cure
He can't hurt you anymore
Give me your hand
I'll help you fight your war
Coz he can't hurt you anymore
