I tried so hard trying to make you the man
I so badly wanted you to be
Rather than facing the truth
And allowing myself to see
That you were never going to be he
*
I’ve lived my whole life thinking that
Hard work is enough
Hard work means success
Hard work gets you what you want
But boy in matters of the heart
It shouldn’t be hard
So now I will walk away
From the man who is not the man
I wanted you to be
