lyrics

They never said it would be easy
We always said we would be fine
I never thought we could be so unhappy
But here we are, nowhere to hide

I tried so hard
What of my love I’m capable of
I tried so hard
To be the one, I was never enough
I tried so hard
To deny what I want but I can’t rise
I tried so hard
But you’re still gonna run

I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself
I’m so tired of wishing I was someone else
You can look all you want but there’s no way to know
How deep the garden grows if you refuse to shine a light

Here I thought you were so fearless
I used to think you were kind
But all I’m left with is a promise
That won’t stand the test of time

I tried so hard
But I can’t hold onto the wind or even a kiss
I tried so hard
To believe that a future of us could exist
I tried so hard
To wish all I may, wish all I might
I tried so hard

I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself
I’m so tired of wishing I was someone else
You can look all you want but there’s no way to know
How deep the garden grows if you refuse to shine a light
Let me have some air so I have a chance to survive
Don’t I deserve sunshine

Don’t I deserve sunshine
Don’t I deserve sunshine
Sunshine

Time to watch the garden grow
Time to watch the garden grow
Time to watch the garden grow
Time to watch the garden grow
Time to watch the garden grow
