Hard

why do i promise i'll never turn back
when one step ahead steps right into the past
and i'm back to the start
where my head's taking over my heart, again

twisting and turning, i'm tangled and torn
too broke and too bent to be fixed anymore
half crazy for home like a castaway prisoner of war

it's hard to believe
that you could love the hardest parts of me
and it's hard to conceive
the way your love unravels me
it's not that i don't want to give you my heart
it's just hard

some mornings it hurts just to climb out of bed
when the ones that i love are there shaking their heads
and like a fly on a screen, i'm just buzzing between
my life and my dreams

it's just hard to believe
that you could love the hardest parts of me
and it's hard to conceive
the way your love unravels me
it's not that i don't want to give you my heart
it's just hard

so bring on the fire
that feeds this desire to feel unbreakable
'cause it's make me or break me
so please make me wake up to something more

'cause it's hard to believe
that you could live the hardest parts of me
and it's hard to conceive
the way, the way your love unravels me
oh, it's not that i don't want to give you my heart
it's just hard

oh, it's not that i don't want to give you my heart
it's just hard
