lyrics

i had no idea that life was this hard
i tried to be fair but it caught me off guard
now i am bruised inside
i don’t know why i ever tried

i said i was struggling but no one believed me
what would i do if this girl ever leaves me
i’d crumble into ash
i can’t live with that

i’ll pick up the pieces and try to improve
can’t take any chances there's too much to lose
and i am trying very hard you know
but it just doesn’t always show

slow progress is progress still i guess
what a mess i’ve made of my life
and i confess i’ve never had it as good as this and i know
this is as good as it gets

i’ve wrote this song now a thousand times
with different words on different lines
its all i really think about
but i still can’t figure it out

you’re all i want you’re all i want to be
but god only knows what you see in me
i’d beg you not to leave
cause you are now a part of me

and i want to change to be better for you
to do myself justice, it’s long overdue
i’m trying very hard you know
but i feel like it never shows

slow progress is progress still i guess
what a mess i’ve made of my life
and i confess i’ve never had it as good as this and i know
this is as good as it gets
