It’s hard to love a mother
That you feel skipped out on your childhood.
It’s hard to love a father
That blamed a dog's death on you.
It’s hard to love a grandmother
When you loved your grandfather more.
It’s hard to love a grandmother
When she got rid of everything about him.
It’s hard to love a guy
When your heart has managed to break
It’s hard to miss somebody
When you've never even met them.
It’s hard to love a grandfather
When you never got the chance.
It’s hard to miss a friend
When you think they don’t miss you
It’s hard to make a friend
When society is telling you to be quiet.
It’s hard to love yourself
When society is screaming at you not to,
It’s hard to be happy
When you feel so empty.
It’s hard to be friends with somebody
When they give you a lot of reasons to hate them.
It’s hard to keep up an act
When you so badly want to be done with it.
