Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality Should've been adjusted to my life Had the opportunity to stay away But the last time Now you're standing right in front of me It hurts me to know that a lot Try to protect your feelings You're right in between the lines Hope your heart is to the headland Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality Don't be afraid to stand alone Don't be afraid to stand outside your comfort zone I know it's far away from home And it ain't easy all alone Releasing slips over the phone Talking to your significant other All night long Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality Sometimes it's hard to face reality Love and death are quite similar How they come and go like cat burglars Reality is kinda hard to face Like acrobatics of flat earthers Rain's a requirement for flowers to grow And pain's a requirement for power to grow It's a miracle how one can change from one What was just hours ago Such is life though, it's just a cycle The bigger picture and the smaller picture Exactly the same, it's macro-micro Crack your atom and let your light glow One day you could be the king of pop And the next one just be wacko Michael It's human nature, just like he told us Let's face reality, crack the cycle Know it hurts to see the truth in your face Circumstances bring you down to your knees Go on and cry an ocean but don't drown in it Enough to put your heart at ease Don't lose your self-esteem I apologize for being a man It's way harder than what it seems Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh You know you might get mad at me Could I be on your bedside? Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh Oh, oh
