Go to empty bars just to sit alone
Tap my feet along to some old school washed up song
And the people that I meet, they might never have someone
But we’re all in that bar just to sit and drink alone
Which I had a better reason and someone to comfort me
But you can’t write a love song ‘till you know just what it means
Sometimes life just gets a little harder
So close your eyes and let it fade away
There are many people that I like to call my friends
But they all run away when the party ends
We live our lives in the clouds said we’re playing pretend
There are many people that I sometimes call my friends
So tell me what the truth is, tell me everything you need
And I can be the light for you when it gets too hard to see
Sometimes life can get a little harder
But close your eyes and let it fade away
Some people tell me boy you’re just too sad
They don’t even know all the hope for life I have
Holding on to my dreams I keep my demons running mad
Well some people say that boy you’re just too sad
Wish I didn’t have a reason and I didn’t need someone
Cause it can sure get lonely when you’re living on the run
Sometimes life can get a little harder
But close your eyes and let it fade away
