harder than it needs to be Lyrics by ​shae (US)

2024

[Verse 1]
Have to move on from it now
Getting to attached to smiling next to you
But I sense a pride is true
'Cause you'd rather lose than say you want me to
[Pre-Chorus]
You're testing my belief
It's harder than it's ever been
Praying 'bout just everything
But I don't wanna be
A shell of who you used to love
Will I ever be enough?
[Chorus]
What if I'm nothing but a passing of greed (Passing of greed)
'Cause you love it when I beg for some of your decency (Decency)
Who needs love when we'rе just fools
Man, I don't know what to do
Silly us, we'd rather
Find our peacе in the in-between
And in this silence there's just too much to say (Too much to say)
When within the end
You're nothing but a messy mistake (Messy mistake)
We are liars and we're fools
Man, I don't know what to do
'Cause we're both making this
Harder than it needs to be (Harder than it needs to be)
Na-na-aah-aah, aah, aah-aah
[Verse 2]
Overthinking in my drought
With a thirst for every sign you give to me
I'm the someone that you need
Our problems are real
But we've been here before
And they're not that unique, mhm, na-na-aah
[Pre-Chorus]
You're testing my belief
It's harder than it's ever been
Praying 'bout just everything
But I don't wanna be
A shell of who you used to love
Will I ever be enough?
[Chorus]
What if I'm nothing but a passing of greed (Passing of greed)
'Cause you love it when I beg for some of your decency (Decency)
Who needs love when we're just fools
Man, I don't know what to do
Silly us, we'd rather
Find our peace in the in-between
And in this silence there's just too much to say (Too much to say)
When within the end
You're nothing but a messy mistake (Messy mistake)
We are liars and we're fools
Man, I don't know what to do
'Cause we're both making this
Harder than it needs to be
[Bridge]
It's taking too long, I can't wait
Though you're absent, I know I'm okay
We'll work on our issues
I'm saying it is, what it is at the end of the day
Maybe one day we'll push by the side
And come home to each other at night (Night)
[Outro]
But I'm moving from it now
Getting to attached to smiling next to you
'Cause I sense your pride is true
'Cause you'd rather lose than say you want me too
