You tried to make me feel
Our love could be real
And I tried, tried to make you feel

You and me have a chance

We tried to understand

Promises have to be kept
But it's only a game
Where both of us hope to win


But I just found the first little cut
And I wonder why, oh God, but so what


It's hard to understand - and find a way
To give you all my life

Hard to understand - and hard to say
To give you all my life


Well, I pretend tonight
Our life is alright
But I feel the weakness now

Of living with a lie

I'm acting sweetness

But I'm burning in hate
'cause I can't stand you hurting me
The same way I hurt you


But I just found the first little cut
And I wonder why, oh God, but so what


It's hard to understand - and find a way
To give you all my life

Hard to understand - and hard to say
To give you all my life
It's hard to understand - and find a way

To give you all my life
Hard to understand - so hard to say
To give you all my life


It's hard to understand - and find a way
Hard to understand - to understand

Hard to understand - you and me have a chance
To give you all my life
I'm burning in hate 'cause it's just a game

To give you all my life
It's hard to understand - so hard to understand
To give you all my life

Hard to understand - so hard to say
To give you all my life
