So Hard
Navigating the Complex Dance of Friendship: 'So Hard' by Tooth Lures a Fang
Lyrics
Won't pick up the telephone
Refusing to answer the phone call.
Won't answer at all
Choosing not to respond to any attempts at communication.
Well I'm probably the selfish one
Acknowledging a self-centered tendency and admitting fault.
Cause I never call when you want me to
Recognizing a failure to call when expected, implying a lack of consideration.
It's so hard to be friends with you
Expressing the difficulty of maintaining a friendship.
It's so hard to be friends with you
Reiterating the challenges and complexities of being friends.
Then in the afternoon
Transitioning to a different scenario, possibly a positive one.
We're headed to play
Heading to engage in an activity together.
Now that I hear from you
Receiving communication, but it's a notification of unavailability.
Just called to say you won't be there
Being informed of the friend's absence from the planned activity.
It's so hard to be friends with you
Repeating the challenges faced in maintaining the friendship.
It's so hard to be friends with you
Emphasizing the ongoing difficulty of being friends.
Leave it to happenstance to see you again
Encountering the friend coincidentally, relying on chance for meetings.
You can't cancel on our plans if we leave them unplanned again
Highlighting the strategy of avoiding cancellations by not making definite plans.
And I won't hold out
Expressing a reluctance to maintain hope or expectations.
It's so hard to be friends with you
Repeating the challenges and hardships of being friends.
It's so hard to be friends with you
Stressing the ongoing difficulty and complexities of friendship.
Yeah I think it's impossible to be (friends with you)
Declaring the perceived impossibility of being friends with the person.
Anything that you want me to, I'm not (friends with you)
Rejecting the idea of fulfilling the friend's expectations.
