You Said You’d Make Me Harder
Lyrics by Brieve Morison
The wind blows up the street
The sun dries up the rain
Banished to these backrooms
Feeling just the same
We all have complications
The ones we are allowed
Me I’m frightened of the truth
Please don’t speak so loud.
And you said you’d make me grow up
Replace naivety you said you’d make me harder
You said you’d make me harder, you said you’d make me harder
I’d not believe that I was me.
And so it came to pass I’d not believed it could
That I would be capable of anything but good
I maintained that I was different
I was something else pure as frozen water
The ice began to melt.
And a lifetime’s cold water flowed around me
And when I saw my own reflection
Saw my own reflection saw my own reflection
I could not believe that it was me,
They say you get more sense
As you get older sense enough to survive
So you must get bolder
In the way you handle your affairs
In business and in love
There is a difference in what you should do and
What will do you the most good
Now I can put a fine shine on goodness easily
And when I see my own reflection see my own reflection
See my own reflection I can’t believe that it is me.
Ah the wind blows up the street
The sun dries up the rain
Banished to these backrooms
Feeling just the same
We all have complications the ones we are allowed
Me I was frightened of the truth
Now I hear I it loud
And you said you’d make me harder
Replace naivety. Said you’d make me harder
Said you’d make me harder now
You can’t handle me.
