Lyrics

It's not hard to believe

Expressing that it's not difficult to accept or believe something.

That the world isn't real

Suggesting a sense of unreality or disillusionment with the world.

When the sun doesn't shine in your eyes

Describing a gloomy or challenging situation where the sun is not shining in one's eyes.

All the time

Indicating a persistent condition rather than a temporary state.


It's not hard to concede

Acknowledging or admitting to a certain truth or reality.

As we cry and we bleed everyday

Expressing emotional pain, bleeding, and crying on a daily basis without giving up.

We just won't leave

Refusing to leave or give up despite difficulties.

Feel your heart stop

Sensing a moment of intense emotion, possibly fear or shock.


Still alive but you're not

Being physically alive but feeling emotionally disconnected or dead.

So you scream that you've had enough

Expressing frustration and the feeling of reaching a breaking point.

Done enough, said enough

Feeling exhausted or overwhelmed by experiences, words, and actions.


See the reflections of lives that you've changed

Reflecting on the impact one has had on the lives of others.

As you look in the mirror and try to believe

Struggling with self-belief and facing the reality of one's actions.

It's been hard that I know

Acknowledging that the journey has been difficult.

But I could have told you so you reap what you sow

Implying that consequences are a result of one's own actions.


Can you see in my face

Asking if someone can perceive emotions or truth through facial expressions.

All these tears I saved for you

Indicating deep emotional pain or sorrow saved for someone.

Can you see it's not right

Highlighting that a situation is not morally or ethically correct.

That our love was never real

Questioning the authenticity of a past romantic relationship.


Is it right to hold on to the words that we spoke

Contemplating whether to hold onto past words despite the absence of feelings.

Even though now that feeling is gone in your eyes

Noticing the loss of emotional connection in someone's eyes.

It's been hard to let you go

Expressing the difficulty of moving on from a past relationship.

Even though you found someone new

Acknowledging the presence of a new person in the ex-partner's life.


Everyday

Highlighting the persistence of difficulty on a daily basis.

It's been hard to find

Expressing the challenge of finding something.

With no peace of mind

Referring to a state of unrest or lack of tranquility.


Can you see in my face

Reiterating the question of perceiving emotions through facial expressions.

All these tears I saved for you

Repeating the theme of intense emotional pain or sorrow.

Can you see it's not right

Reiterating the moral or ethical questioning of a past relationship.

That our love was never real

Reiterating doubt about the authenticity of a past romantic connection.
