Damaged Goods from Liftoff by Crosstalk Club

You friends are telling me not to bother with you
They say you're not ready for someone new
You're through with love, that's what they say
But I'm not ready to just walk away
When lovers go through all the hell you've been
Nobody wants to travel there again
You think you're alone, but I say no
I'll tell you some things I think you should know:
Some people have issues – and some have subscriptions
But we're all the same, we share a condition
We always think we're the only one
But one thing's true for everyone

Nobody loves a heart brand-new
‘Cause it’s somebody else’s damaged goods
Every lover abandoned or been misused
Now is somebody else’s damaged goods.
...Everybody’s somebody’s damaged goods. (uh-huh)

You're telling me you'd rather spend your nights alone
Than searching for another love to call your own
Your heart is bruised and barely alive
But bruises are badges to show we survived
Our heartaches are different, but it all ends the same
We patch up our wounds and get back in the game
So don't you tell me we're a waste of time
Show me your scars, I will show you mine

'Cause nobody loves a heart brand-new
‘Cause it’s somebody else’s damaged goods
Every lover abandoned or been misused
Now is somebody else’s damaged goods.
...Everybody’s somebody’s damaged goods. (uh-huh)

So here is my heart and so much more
Ignore the carbon scoring, it’s been burned before.
But it’s in pretty good shape so if you don’t mind
I think our matching baggage makes us two of a kind
Just look and you'll find...

That nobody loves a heart brand-new
‘Cause it’s somebody else’s damaged goods
Every lover abandoned or been misused
Now is somebody else’s damaged goods.
Everybody’s somebody’s damaged goods.
You and I are somebody’s damaged goods. (uh-huh)
