I said to myself, I'm gonna be hard this year, no hurt
So far I've been soft and I take every hit
Open up my heart to anyone who asks me to
And I'm wondering how I get caught in between you and me
Cause I don't need anyone who doesn't need me, but it's lonely
And I can't do this alone, though I try, I try
I'm not even sure why I bother anymore
But you pull me in close
And I buy it
I try to believe I am yours
And I take back my tears
No hurt, no words for it
Cause I don't need anyone who doesn't need me, but it's lonely
And I can't do this alone, though I try, I try
I said to myself
I'm gonna be hard
This year
No hurt
Cause I don't need anyone who doesn't need me, but it's lonely
And I can't do this alone, though I try, I try
I, I, I try
I try
I, I, I try
