Nothing Good (Comes Easily)

I want to be carefree
I want to change my fate
I want to rewind time
But I fear it's too late
I want to learn to laugh
With abandon
Give me a polygraph
And I'll paint your picture

Why'd you have to ask me
What I wanted to be?
Couldn't you just let me breathe?

Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily

What a luxury not to know
To give a gift
And have it be received
I can't sleep at night
Without these same old dreams
Call me uptight
But it's a cruel joke
Living in the in-between

Why'd you have to ask me
What I wanted to be?
Couldn't you just let me breathe?
If getting a degree
Would make me happy, set me free
Honey, what a luxury

Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily

When the light shines down on me
Will it break the fantasy?
No more unrequited dreams
No more misdirected pleas

Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily
Nothing good comes easily
No, no, no, no
Nothing good comes easily
