[Intro]
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody, some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody, some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody, some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody hurt my soul now

[Verse 1]
I am the damned, I am the dead
I am the agony inside the dying head
This is injustice, woe unto thee
I pray this punishment would have mercy on me

[Bridge]
Have mercy
Have mercy
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody, some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody, some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody hurt my soul now
Somebody, some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody
Some, some, somebody hurt my soul now

[Verse 2]
I gave her money, I gave her time
I gave her everything inside one heart could find
I gave her passion, my very soul
I gave her promises and secrets so untold

[Pre-Chorus]
And she promised me forever
And a day we'd live as one
We made our vows we'd live a life anew
And she promised me in secret
That she'd love me for all time
It's a promise so untrue
Tell me what will I do?

[Chorus]
And it doesn't seem to matter
And it doesn't seem right
'Cause the will has brought no fortune
Still I cry alone at night
Don't you judge of my composure
'Cause I'm lying to myself
And the reason why she left me
Did she find in someone else?

[Outro]
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely
I can't take it 'cause I'm lonely

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
