Harder Than It Seems
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.
Mystery girl runs away
To a harlot city's hard embrace
Seeking what's been advertised
All the life that's been denied
A fever burns in every joint
A plea in every needlepoint
Communion
Can you have a perfect lover without understanding love?
Can you see a brighter future without seeking what you hide?
And I understand that simple truth is deeper than is wide
Still I know
Sometimes its harder than it seems
Sometimes its harder than it seems
Mystery girl walks alone
Through the doors a hundred offerings made
Hear the echo, touch the wood
As a deeper longing longs for good
And as the candle leaves your hand
Feel the warmth and understand
Communion
Can you have a perfect lover without understanding love?
Can you see a brighter future without seeking what you hide?
And I understand that simple truth is deeper than is wide
Still I know
Sometimes it harder than it seems
Sometimes it's harder than it seems
And you're wanting to believe
Sometimes it's harder than it seems
Shame is like a blister every step will make it worse
And the vessels of your great escape have all but disappeared
And you hear the savior call you to a life beyond your means
And I know even a simple faith is harder than it seems- it seems
Can you have a perfect lover without understanding love?
Can you see a brighter future without seeking what you hide?
And I understand that simple truth is deeper than is wide
Still I know
Sometimes it's harder than it seems
Sometimes it's harder than it seems
And you're wanting to believe
Sometimes it's harder than it seems
