I find it so hard to be true

And all these lies I'm telling you

Are little anchors in my chest

That pull us down into this mess

I find it easy to distract

And just as soon as you turn your back

I'll be gone again

I find it so hard to be true

And all the secrets

I keep from you

Are like a blackness

In my heart

That only tears us both apart

I find it easy to pretend

That we're not heading

For our end

That's why I'm telling you..

I built a wall..

I cut you off..

Now there's no lies

That's gonna fix this up

I played the saint

And a saint I ain't

Now all the hurt is here again

Here again

I find it so hard to be true

But I'm gonna try my best for you

And every distance that we've known

Will disappear before too long

And every line we've ever drawn

Will be erased before we're gone

This I swear to you...

I built a wall

I cut you off

No there's no lie

That's gonna fix this hurt

I played the saint

I cursed your name

Now there's no-one but myself to blame

That you're gone....

You know I hate it this way

You keep on pushing on me

They say it's never too late

I'm afraid it is now for me

When every word that you say

I can't know how I can believe

And now you've pushed me away

Till I was way beyond me

I know I'll be lonely without you

But there's no fight left in me

I'm breaking down all the walls

You slowly built around me

Why do you ask for my trust

When you're not worthy of it?

I find it hard to adjust

To the lines you're drawing for me
