lyrics

It’s Gonna Get Harder

what did you think when he sent that letter to you?
you traded love for a chance to be free from the zoo
now he's out there alone for the world to see
and it's gonna get harder

he smokes cigarettes as he stands in the cold
thinks about the things that he's been told
but now the old rock bottom is crumbling again
and it's gonna get harder

did you really think that you got me down?
'cause baby there's a word all over town about you
pretty sure you know where the low cards lie
gonna prove you wrong and go get high
without you

she swears she see angels with bright burning wings
but her mother’s earthly thoughts and things
have caused her guttering lights to slowly burn out
and it's gonna get harder

she left the city for the shade of the staggering pines
to hide the grief of tear blind eyes
she traded youth for a truth that she can't even see
and it's gonna get harder

did you really think that you got me down?
'cause baby there's a word all over town about you
pretty sure you know where the low cards lie
gonna prove you wrong and go get high
without you

when all my thoughts have turned to sand
slowly slipping thru my hands
i'll find a place where i can lie
'cause it's gonna get harder
