Pride And Joy

It's so much harder so much harder

Than you thought it would be

You try and you try but you can't see the light

You hide in the day and cry in the night

But don't lose sight

It's so much harder so much harder

Than you thought it would be

You've so many friends but you're always alone

You're trying to swim but you sink like a stone

You're not on your own

Your knees get weak your hands are shaking

You get so scared that you can hardly speak

But hold on tight it's a new surprise

I can see the tears are in your eyes

It's so much harder so much harder

Than you thought it would be

You try and you try but you can't see the light

You hide in the day and cry in the night

Who would have thought this pride and joy

Would end up being such a lonely boy

There goes love here comes hate

You get confused so you watch and you wait

By the time you wake up it's all too late

It's so much harder so much harder

Than you thought it would be

Your knees get weak your hands are shaking

You get so scared that you can hardly speak

But hold on tight it's a new surprise

I can see the tears are in your eyes

This hate is only love in disguise
