What should I say?

Has someone ever told you
Something you didn't want to hear
Because you just didn't
Know what to say.

That something wasn't hurtful
That something wasn't cruel
But you just didn't
Know what to say.

They didn't want your pity
They didn't want your tears
You still just didn't
Know what to say.

It was so terrible
Except that doesn't cover it
Because you just didn't
Know what to say.

Their life should be ruined
Yet they had the words
And you just didn't
Know what to say.
