How Hard the Day

Write me a prescription, keep the lonelies at bay How much of this friction will it take to enflame I don't need a doctor to diagnose pain All the pricks and bruises yet somehow we stay When it hurts You know how hard You know how hard I rub my nose in the dirt And it hurts Started with some pride, all ends in decay Told you I was lying when I said I was brave There's no silver lining at the end of this page Life is an affliction, we all get in the way When it hurts You know how hard You know how hard I rub my nose in the dirt And it hurts When it hurts You know how hard You know how hard I rub my nose in the dirt And it hurts Can't believe I can get so bleak I don't swing this way, so to speak And when I bleed, all I see is decay I don't swing that way When it hurts You know how hard You know how hard I rub my nose in the dirt And it hurts You know how hard You know how hard I rub my nose in the dirt And it hurts --- How Hard The Day - James
