It’s Hard To Believe

Everybody’s got war in their hearts,

And blood on their hands

Why we’re still fighting, oh

I still don’t understand, hey

 

Doesn’t she deserve somebody to love

Doesn’t he deserve his truth

Why you gotta hide in a city of light

When there’s a ton more people like you

 

It’s hard, to believe

That these things will ever change

But I promise it’ll happen one day

It’s hard, to believe

The these things will ever change

But I promise it’ll happen one day

 

Tongue’s cut out to silence the outcry

But you can’t change will

Revolutions happen every day if you let them

Why we gotta make it uphill

 

It’s hard, to believe

That these things will ever change

But I promise it’ll happen one day

It’s hard, to believe

The these things will ever change

But I promise it’ll happen one day

Like You

Yeah, I know what I look like

Yeah, I know what you see

Go on, beg for permission

To throw your words at me

Oh, I’m an easy target

Yeah, right in your face

Go on, tell me all about it

The things I make you say

 

I asked for it

When I turned my head

Turned my back on you

I asked for it

When I dared to say

I hope I never end up like you

 

Yeah, I know its too much

For you hold your tongue

Oh, the feelings I don’t have

Well I’m going numb

Go on, tell me about it

The things I make you say

 

I asked for it

When I turned my head

Turned my back on you

I asked for it

When I dared to say

I hope I never end up like you

 

Eyes so wide

For wrong things

I hope I never end up like you

Mouth so big

For big words

I hope I never end up like you

Eyes so wide

For wrong things

Fingers so willing to fix

Mouth so big

For big words

Tongue so fucking quick

 

I asked for it

When I turned my head

Turned my back on you

I asked for it

When I dared to say

I hope I never end up like you

Goodbyes

I talked to a woman with three eyes

She said in two out of three she was blind,

But it’s okay cause the last one sees better than most

I talked to a woman with three eyes,

She said in two out of three she was blind,

And then whispered in my ear real close,

She said, you better watch out for the teeth marks of original sin

Without the bittersweet scent of sincerity, honey

 

Woah, yeah, we’ve said goodbye

Too many times

Never really said hello, again

It just kinda happened, baby

Woah, yeah, we’ve said goodbye

Too many times

Never really said hello, again

It just keeps happening, baby, woah, yeah

 

I ran into the middle of a sandstorm

It opened my skin like only you had done

But at least these wounds will heal

I ran into the middle of a sandstorm

It opened my skin like only you had done

But at least now I know it’s real

Watching out for the teeth marks of original sin

Without the bittersweet scent of sincerity, honey

 

Woah, yeah, we’ve said goodbye

Too many times

Never really said hello, again

It just kinda happened, baby

Woah, yeah, we’ve said goodbye

Too many times

Never really said hello, again

It just keeps happening, baby, woah, yeah
