And it ends like this   with a quote from an 80's song   "sing me to sleep"   she was hoping for it all along   i took the letter from my bed   and blacked out every line i read   except for seven words   that made so much sense to her      it's like one voice in the choir   burried by the rest      holding our breath til there's nothing left   it's too hard taking the world on   too hard taking the world on      she's the one true artist   the last of a dying breed   an unguarded heart is   the one thing you'll never need   the snow has never looked like this   the city never stops to rest   she's off to start a war   is this worth fighting for?      this is like the flash that lights up your picture   coming from the crowd      throwing fists through the air when there's no one there   it's too hard taking the world on   too hard taking the world on      carving our names so the past remains   it's too hard taking the world on   too hard taking the world on      stand up, the keys, and then the car   drive up, the porch, and then the door   two knocks, the lock, and there you are   say what i could not say before      standing our ground til the walls come down   it's too hard taking the world on   too hard taking the world on
