Hardcore

I broke down on the yellow line train

My sweater got tear-stained

My favorite record is a slow jam

Just shows you what a wimp I am

I get emo when I watch TV

It always feels like they're talking to me

I broke down on the yellow line train

Can't lie about what's on my brain

I know I've ruined a night or two

I couldn't hold back my views

Family dinner, turned off the news

Stuck in a silent room

And I'd rather die by the truth

Than hide away, feeling shades of blue

I've ruined a night or two

'Cause it's hard being hardcore

I'll cut the lights and cry in the dark more

If you don't feel then what the hell is a heart for?

'Cause it's hard being hardcore

Everybody's got the same blank face

Tough roughing up the place

When you're not putting up a front

Now you're the crazy one

Leather jackets line up at the bar

Good at hiding who they are

Everybody's got the same blank face

'Cause it's hard being hardcore

I'll cut the lights and cry in the dark more

If you don't feel then what the hell is a heart for?

'Cause it's hard being hardcore

(Hardcore)

(Hardcore)

So I'd rather die by the truth

Than hide away, feeling shades of blue

You want tears? I've shed a few

'Cause it's hard being hardcore

I'll cut the lights and cry in the dark more

If you don't feel then what the hell is a heart for?

'Cause it's hard being hardcore

(Hardcore, hardcore)

(Hardcore, hardcore)

Hardcore

Being hardcore
