Aggressively Melodic, Bitterly Rhapsodic

His armor is tarnished, broken, unhinged

His steed has been gelded and put out to pasture

Might as well do the same to him


Still living with memories that make him cringe

Hoped they would have faded away as he matured

Sitting in the warm sun but his thoughts are cold & grim


Why, he cries, does everything have to be so hard

Why, why, why does it all have to be so hard

So so hard, so damn unbearably hard

Never easy, always, always, always hard


Never feeling like he belonged, always living on the fringe

Yearned for an ordinary life, settled for a disaster

Wasn't able to quite grasp the risk to life and limb


He had plans, dreams he'd pursue after this one last binge

Felt there'd always be time but the years are passing faster

Willing to jump in the water, never even learned to swim


Why, he cries, does everything have to be so hard

Why, why, why does it all have to be so hard

So so hard, so damn unbearably hard

Never easy, always, always, always hard


Why, he cries, does everything have to be so hard

Why, why, why does everything have to be so hard

So so hard, so damn unbearably hard

Never easy, always, always, always hard
