It’s hard to explain
Why things go by
It’s hard to explain
Why you cry
It’s hard to understand
Why things go so wrong
It’s hard to understand
Why it lasts so long
It’s hard to realize
Why you’re not in sight
It’s hard to realize
Why nothing’s bright
It’s hard to discover
Why names mean so much
It’s hard to discover
Why I act as such
It’s hard to communicate
Why your chips are so low
It’s hard to communicate
Why nothing will grow
It’s hard to extract
Why we act this way
It’s hard to extract
Why we say what we say
It’s hard to condense
Why things defy
Why no one’s singing your song
Why all of life’s a fight
Why you use me as a crutch
Why you never know
And why we always pay
