The Hard Way Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We were just strangers
Didn't know your name but
I could tell you were good at hiding your pain
The ones you kept closest didn't even notice
But I saw your heartache, yet I stayed away

[Pre-Chorus]
And lately it's haunting me, I didn't protect you
Your skin was still thickening, but I just assumed
[Chorus]
That you were okay
But I learnt the hard way
Thought it wasn't my place
But I learnt the hard way

[Verse 2]
You left us too soon
Such pain they put you through
Only felt safe in your room, needed someone to turn to
A delicate flower, they took all your powеr
And got in your head before you could еven bloom

[Pre-Chorus]
But lately it's haunting me, I didn't protect you Your skin was still thickening, but I just assumed

[Chorus]
That you were okay
But I learnt the hard way
Thought it wasn't my place
But I learnt the hard way

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Pretending everything's okay
I should've taken on your weight
Then I wouldn't have to learn the hard way
And why does someone have to lose?
And why did that have to be you?
Wish I didn't have to learn the hard way
Pretending everything's okay
I should've taken on your weight
Then I wouldn't have to learn the hard way
And why does someone have to lose?
And why did that have to be you?
Wish I didn't have to learn the hard way
