Song lyrics The Hurting by Tears For Fears

Is it an horrific dream
am i sinking fast
could a person be so mean
as to laugh and laugh
on my own
could you ease my load
could you see my pain
could you please explain
the hurting
Could you understand a child
when he cries in pain
could you give him all he needs
or do you feel the same
all along
you've been told you're wrong
when you felt it right
and you're left to fight
the hurting
Get in line with the things you know
feel the pain
feel the sorrow
touch the hurt and don't let go
get in line with the things you know
learn to cry
like a baby
then the hurting won't come back
