Lyrics These Hard Times - Matchbox Twenty

These Hard Times

Morning falls like rain into the city life
There goes another night
Losing my breath in waves
Knowing that ever crash is bleeding the hourglass
And taking the strife from all our lives
Everyone keeps talking
They promise you everything
But they don’t mean anything
We may lose our focus
There’s just too many words
We’re never meant to learn
And we don’t feel so alive
Say goodbye, these days are gone
And we can’t keep holding on
When all we need is some relief
Though these hard times
Through these hard times
Move your hands in circles
Keeping me hypnotized
The power behind your eyes
Move around your bedroom cursing the naked sky
You should be here tonight
But you stay alone and cry
Say goodbye, these days are gone
And we can’t keep holding on
When all we need is some relief
Through these hard times
(whoa) There’s something missing
(Oh whoa) You’ll never feel it but you
(Oh whoa) You’re gonna feel it when it’s gone
When it’s gone
Say goodbye, these days are gone
And we can’t keep holding on
When all we need is some relief
Through these hard times
(hey) these Hard times
(oh no now) Hard times
Hard times
Say goodbye, these days are gone
Say goodbye, these days are gone
These days are gone
