Uphill Battle

I cried on your shoulder right there in the kitchen

Our friends in the next room so close they could listen

And I don't know why I laugh when I cry

I'm not the girl that you thought you were getting

I'm way more complex, yeah, I got them sharp edges

I'm solid as ice, oh

But I break all the time

If I were a different girl

It'd be simpler, that's for sure

Wouldn't it be nice to be a cool wind, cool wind?

Always keep it breezy

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, but I am not that easy

No, I am who I am

And I am a lot to handle

You do the best you can

But I am an uphill battle

You say I act like it's my job to get so emotional

Hell, it's my business to get so emotional

About to lose it, just below the surface

Walking around with a knot in my stomach

Got you so high but we're ready to plummet

Going down, going down, going down, going down

Oh, no

But if I were a different girl

It'd be simpler, that's for sure

Oh, wouldn't it be nice to be a cool wind, cool wind?

Always keep it breezy

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, but I am not that easy

No, I am who I am and

I am a lot to handle

You do the best you can but

I am an uphill battle

I'll be your solid ground and

I'll be your biggest gamble

You do the best you can, I know

So, baby, baby, keep on climbing

I wrap my arms around you tight

I'll take you to the highest mountain

I'll take you to the top tonight

'Cause if I were a different girl

Yeah, it'd be simpler, that's for sure

But you know you wouldn't get the sparks from the clash

The high from the crash

The curse and the kiss, they will make this thing last

No, I am who I am and

I am a lot to handle

You do the best you can but

I am an uphill battle

I'll be your solid ground and

I'll be your biggest gamble

You do the best you can but

I am an uphill battle

An uphill battle

An uphill battle
