What's So Hard About Being in Love?

You don't stop fighting for the one you love
But you're still hiding from the things you're scared of
You don't wanna get hurt again
So you think we'll be better off as friends

I know I can never bring you peace, but I can try
I know you got everything you need
But that don't mean you feel alright

I wish you'd hug me from behind
Wish you'd kiss me on the neck
Wish you'd whisper me to sleep
Wish I wasn't such a wreck
Wish there's more time in the day to spend time with you
Want to sneak out at night
Why's that not what you want to do?
No, what's so hard about being in love?
No, why don't you want someone who won't give up?
No, why don't you want it when clearly I'd be
Good to you like no one has ever been?

You could have so much, but you don't want it
It's not a death sentence if you give me your attachment
You're the only thing separating (What?) us from each other (Huh?)
That's your choice to make (Okay), I could still be your lover

I know I can never bring you peace, but I can try (I know, I know)
(I know, I know) (Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I know you got everything you need
But that don't mean you feel alright
(No, that don't mean)

I wish you'd hug me from behind
Wish you'd kiss me on the neck (Kiss me on the neck)
Wish you'd whisper me to sleep (Whisper, whisper)
Wish I wasn't such a wreck
Wish there's more time in the day to spend time with you
Want to sneak out at night
Why's that not what you want to do?
No, what's so hard about being in love? (What's so hard about it?)
No, why don't you want someone who won't give up?
No, why don't you want it when clearly I'd be
Good to you like no one has ever been?

Sledgehammer, baby
That's my heartbeat breaking down your walls
(I'm breaking down) (Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Detachment, baby
That's what you're doing, and it's wrong
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Why would you feel nothing instead of everything
Just so you don't get hurt?
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You're pulling away from me
You don't know how much that hurts me
What's it worth?
(No, what's it worth? What's it worth?)

Some were born to be the enemy
I was born to be the reject
And everyone I've trusted has
Gone and betrayed the trust I owed them

No, what's so hard about being in love?
No, why don't you want someone who won't give up?
No, why don't you want it when clearly I'd be
Good to you like no one has ever been?
