Soft Sounds From Another Planet Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish I could keep you from abusing yourself for no reason at all
Counting backwards, things you endured
Pitting them up against happier lives

[Chorus 1]
That’s not the way to hurt me
That’s not the way to hurt me
I'll show you the way to hurt me

[Verse 2]
In search of a soft sound from another planet
In search of a quiet place to lay this to rest
Striving for goodness while the cruel men win
There’s no part of me left that can feel or hear it

[Lap Steel Solo]

[Chorus 2]
They’ll never let you hurt me
They’ll never let you hurt me
I’ll never let you hurt me
(Hurt me)
