How Hard

You walk small
Show them that you’re kind
Stand down
Give them some peace of mind
Act coy, show off your giving side
They don’t know how hard you try

Try to be ok
How hard it is to be ok for you
How hard it is to be you and free and easy
Well, you had to put her in her place

She didn’t see how hard you tried
She didn’t care what was inside of you
She’s just not loving kind, maybe
That’s why

It’s hard to be ok
It’s so hard to be ok for you
So hard to be you and free and easy
You had to put her in her place
