It's like getting lost in a photograph In something you can't resist What you thought As it slows you down you know How could you find love when you hesitate Believing in all those things that you thought yesterday You hit a wall you hit a wall in silence yesterday And you see it fall, keep on trying And you try to escape it on your own Tell me why you gotta be so hard on yourself now When its killing you all along When you hope but your hope is gone Tell me why you gotta be so hard on yourself now You tested time, is it true at all Tell me what would be left to see here through it all All the stories that you told When your just like a child acting so innocent Never worried about a thing until it's gone, yesterday When you hit a wall you hit a wall in silence yesterday Can you see it fall, keep on trying And you try to escape it on your own Tell me why you gotta be so hard on yourself now When its killing you all along When you hope, and your hope is gone Tell me why you gotta be so hard on yourself now Cause you've been holding back for brighter days Some might call it Holding backs your weakness its your so called mistake And all you ever needed was a sudden change you're caught between it And all the other versions of it are all the same And you try to escape it on your own Tell me why you gotta be so hard on yourself now When its killing you all along When you hope but your hope is gone Tell me why you gotta be so hard on yourself now
