Well I saw you out last night;
You were drinkin'.
And it looked like a good time,
And now I hear different:
How the teeth that cut your lip
As you're grinning
Draw the blood that shows the lengths you'll go not to burden the world.

To the hurting kind,
You're a role model.
It takes guts to save
Your pain from your friends.

I heard things are going well;
That's the rumor.
But you called to bring me down,
So I will know better:
How the smile that hurts your face is so tiring;
'Cause I know the effort brings only bitterness.

To the hurting kind,
You're a role model.
It takes guts to save your pain from your friends.
