Will
          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          No longer will I suffer myself because of you
          I have felt more guilt and remorse in the short while I've known you
          Then I have felt thus far added together.

          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          I have more then done my share to keep what we had
          From the beginning I warned you how difficult it would be with me
          Now I will quit trying to change myself for you.

          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          Through the short years I have lived I have always punished myself
          Always the guilty one even if others were to blame
          I refuse to take the blame any longer.

          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          You have not the right to accuse me alone
          We are both equally guilty
          And I will not carry the burden of such a thing.

          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          How dare you ask me to try and understand
          When you cannot see past the finger you are pointing at me
          How can I be expected?

          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          I refuse to let myself be the scared cat
          Backed into a corner with no choice but to obey
          You have such audacity to expect me to do as you say.

          I will not be hurt by you, anymore
          I belong to no one else but myself
          I told you that at the beginning
          Now I am telling you that at the end.
