Hard

Staring at the bottom and the memories of long ago
Try to pull yourself up loose that all time low
Still it wants to bring you down
Wants to steal your crown
Try to wrap it up and just give it all some place to go

Staring at a photograph
Of everything we used to have
And memories of long ago
Hard to shake them now, hard to shake them now
Looking back at the past
And why we couldn't make it last
And why you ever had to go
Hard to take it now, hard to shake it now
It holds on

Somewhere down the road and the things you learned along the way
All you won and lost, and all you had to pay
Still it wants to turn you round
Wants to steal your ground
Try to wrap it up and somehow just put it all away

Staring at a photograph
Of everything we used to have
And memories of long ago
Hard to shake them now, hard to shake them now
Looking back at the past
And why we couldn't make it last
And why you ever had to go
Hard to take it now, hard to shake it now
It holds on

Staring at a photograph
Of everything we used to have
And memories of long ago
Hard to shake them now, hard to shake them now
Looking back at the past
And why we couldn't make it last
And why you ever had to go
Hard to take it now, hard to shake it now
It holds on
It holds on
It holds on
It holds on
