Elliott Smith — Seen How Things are Hard

The tin kids who betrayed The stupid shit you just played I took pictures in my head You and a blank stare, we had a little trace of you there You just didn't care You were off getting drunk instead I’ve seen how things are hard I’ve seen how things are hard I love you though I’ve seen how things are hard Seen how things are hard Well, don't you know? You were scared of what you thought With a dizzy high You freaked out and forgot You stayed well away from trouble that you caused Using all your strength To keep the world at an arm's length and not get upset At this self-imposed loss I’ve seen how things are hard Seen how things are hard I love you though Seen how things are hard Seen how things are hard Well, don't you know? I'm a cracked reflection of you I can't make corrections for you You have to help me patch things up Seen how things are hard I’ve seen how things are hard I love you though Seen how things are hard Seen how things are hard Well, don't you know? I’ve seen how things are hard I’ve seen how things are hard I love you though I’ve seen how things are hard Seen how things are hard Well, don't you know? No
