why do they make it hard to love you?
why can't they even start to try?
'cause now i feel a bridge is burning
and all the smoke is in my eyes
i realize i never let them know me
i always wanted to be right
took a mistake to really show me
exactly what they were like
i've been wrong but i've been changing
i've been wondering what to do
here i am alone and waiting
for you
why do i try and make them happy?
why am i always playing nice?
it isn't easy trying to tell you
exactly what's on my mind
