Really Hard

To be loving when the knives are out

Takes much courage and a mind without doubt

I’m just some robot, wind up the clockwork jerk

Trying to impress is the nature of our work

But it’s so hard to remain open

If you bend you won’t get broken

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard

Rhetoriticians think they’re running this show

Words as power is all they’ll ever know

I’m just some reflex, when struck, the knee will jerk

Trying to impress, trying to impress, is the nature of my work

And it’s so hard to remain open

If it’s true, it can’t be spoken

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard

Wake up from this dreaming state

Alarms scream out, it’s not too late

I am dying, dying to begin

I am dying, dying to begin again

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard

Really hard
