Hard To See
I’m naturally a nice person I keep my hands clean I keep my words gentle I let things slide, let things be
If you see me turn cold If you see me shut a door They had to dig for that fire Had to push me to the floor
So don’t mistake my calm For something you can use I’m soft until I’m broken Then I tell the truth
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person If you saw me switch You made me earn it first
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person They worked real hard To see that part of me
I don’t keep score for fun I don’t like the taste of spite I give second chances I try to keep it light
But some cuts run deep And some names don’t fade When I finally step back It’s because I gave too much away
So don’t mistake my calm For something you can use I’m soft until I’m broken Then I tell the truth
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person If you saw me switch You made me earn it first
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person They worked real hard To see that part of me
You don’t get the storm Without the sky You don’t get the wound Without the lie
I wanted peace I wanted ease But you kept pulling At my seams
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person If you saw me switch You made me earn it first
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person They worked real hard To see that part of me
I’m a nice person I’m a nice person Don’t act surprised When I choose me
