Hard to Believe Lyrics

Hard to believe
Seven years went by this fast
Hard to believe
All my friends are gone at last

Hard to believe
I built myself a lousy home
A pirate ship of Styrofoam
A vessel everyone can see is sinking but me

Hard to believe
I'm sick
Hard to believe
I'm no doctor
Hard to believe
I'm a dead man
I'm a goner, a comet, a kickstand

Hard to believe
I can't make Pepsi out of wine
I've ended up as Frankenstein
The only thing you'd pay to see
Is my monster killing me
And I asked for help a million times
The warning signs were those wrinkled lines
And you saw them every night
I aged two years with every fight
I'm a blind giving tree that doesn't see when it's time to leave
And it's hard to believe
It's hard to believe
(Whine, whine, whine)

All across the battlefield
My men are lying in their blood
So much suffering at my heels
Even valiance sinks in mud

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
