[Verse 1: Elias Soriano]

Twisted, intricate, obscure, and tangled

Double-edged through my head, leavin' me mangled

I can't handle

Incomprehensible questions and words

Created from all of the stories you heard

These complications are going too far

And show me exactly who you are

[Chorus 1: Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman]

It should never be this hard

It should never be this hard

[Verse 2: Elias Soriano]

Misled into thinking that everything's okay

Misread my answers 'cause all of the hearsay

You'll understand someday soon

Changed my direction

Redefined my intentions

How can you mention the good that we had

When everything else makes me mad?

[Chorus 2: Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman]

It should never be this hard

It should never be this hard

[Bridge: Elias Soriano]

Break away

Run away

Hide away just to get away

[Chorus 3: Elias Soriano, Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman]

It should never be this hard (Should never be this hard)

It should never be this hard (Should never be this hard)

Don't try and make me stay

Just turn your head and walk away
