the hard way

(album: In Sickness & In Flames - 2020)

We crash
It starts to rain
Whoever's writing my story wants me to learn the hard way
Don't take it easy on the character
I am the character

Seven hundred fifty thousand miles everyday
If I was a robot man
If I had titanium for legs
Don't take it easy on the animal
I am the animal

Rough at the start
I'm not perfect
I'm falling apart
Don't seem worth it anymore

The hard way, the hard way
We are all going the hard way

First I came
Then I crash
Try to see it from my perspective
Don't take it easy on the animals
I am the animal

Seven hundred fifty thousand miles everyday
If I was a robot man
If I had titanium for legs
Don't take it easy on the animal
I am the animal

Rough at the start
I'm not perfect
I'm falling apart
Don't seem worth it anymore

The hard way, the hard way
We are all going the hard way
The hard way, the hard way

I had found myself while waiting in line
I know it helps but it's not gonna fly
I know it hurts and I'm not gonna lie
It's the way that I live and it just doesn't feel right

I had found myself while waiting in line
I know it hurts but I'm not gonna cry
I try to explain but it's getting hard
How you crashed your car and all your scars got scars
Totally useless crooked nail
Never again like I was born to fail
Try to explain it's getting hard
How you crashed your car and all your scars got scars

How your scars got scars

Rough at the start
I'm not perfect
I'm falling apart
It's not worth it
I bet our vibrations are meeting somewhere out there in the air

The hard way, the hard way
We are all going the hard way
The hard way, the hard way
We are all going the hard way
