Hurt Me

Ne-Yo · Other Songs - Ne-Yo

On a mission to make me feel it

All she wanna do is hurt me

Shorty's only concern is that I fall



Naa



She's determined to kill me softly

And I think she knows it's working

But what's sad is that I deserve it all



'Cause I brought her life to an end

And now all she wants is revenge



All she wanna do is hurt me

Make me play her game

All she wanna do is hurt me

She wants me to feel pain

I tried to say I'm sorry

But that don't mean a thing

All she wanna do is hurt me

All she wanna do is hurt me, yeah



I'm running round in circles lately

I don't really know my way now

Trying to figure it out but it's no use



And I feel like it's almost over

It could happen any day now

She's taken everything but my life and she wants that too, oh



'Cause I brought her life to an end

And now all she wants is revenge



All she wanna do is hurt me

Make me play her game

All she wanna do is hurt me

She wants me to fell pain

I tried to say I'm sorry, so sorry

But that don't mean a thing

All she wanna do is hurt me

All she wanna do is hurt me, yeah



I didn't mean to do what I did

I didn't know that this would happen

And if I never, ever love again

It'll be exactly what she wanted from me



Cold Blooded

Oh

Cold Hearted

Oh

We never started

Oh

[...]

Oh



Ah, oh



All she wanna do is hurt me, hurt me yeah

Make me play her game, oh all she wanna do

All she wanna do is hurt me, oh hurt me

She wants me to feel pain

She wants me to feel pain

I tried to say I'm sorry, said I'm sorry

But that don't mean a thing, but that don't mean a thing

All she wanna do is hurt me

All she wanna do is hurt me, yeah
