Happy The Hard Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tell me it's over
Tell me we finally made it through
The comfort in silence
Turns to panic once again
We're caught in a landslide
We're dirty, we're broken
Black and blue
The feeling is lost in every signal that we send
How could a love hurt this bad?
How could we lose all that we had?
Why do we follow through?
What keeps us hanging on?
We lived like a storm and let it ride
For all of the times we felt alive
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way
Say what you can't say
Say it's the end, say anything
There's something to find
In all the places that you fear
Lost in a moment
When it's only me and you
There is no other place I'd rather be but here
And those are only times that make the world disappear
How could a love hurt this bad?
How could we lose all that we had?
Why do we follow through?
What keeps us hanging on?
We lived like a storm and let it ride
For all of the times we felt alive
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way
Can't we see it's time to let go?
There's no saving this tomorrow
But it's just so hard to say goodbye
Tell me it's over
Tell me we finally made it through
How could a love hurt this bad?
How could we lose all that we had?
Why do we follow through?
What keeps us hanging on?
We lived like a storm and let it ride
For all of the times we felt alive
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way, yeah
But sometimes love just can't make you stay
When you're happy the hard way
When you're happy the hard way
When you're happy the hard way
