Hard

The way you held my face I swear I softened

For the very first time in my life

Fists unclenched and my guard started dropping

We kissed quick before you pulled me inside

The next morning I looked in the mirror

Saw a woman I had never met

She looked hopeful even sort of pitiful

Like she forgot nothing is a given

Nothing is a given

So hit me

I can't get soft

'Cause I'm too hard

And my ribs are

Metal cages

To guard my heart

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I got married once in combat boots and

Only listened to testosterone music

I had to kill my feminine just to do it

To get to you

I had to go through it

So hit me

I can't get soft

'Cause I'm too hard

And my ribs are

Metal cages

To guard my heart

I'm too I'm too hard

Always ready for the piano to fall

Always ready to be left out in the cold

Armor's heavy, never suited me at all

But it's the devil I know

So hit me

I can't get soft

Cause I'm too hard

And my ribs are

Metal cages

To guard my heart

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard

I'm too, I'm too hard
