Maybe you feel entitled
'Cause this should have never, ever happened to you
And maybe you've tried to let it go

But letting go just ain't never easy to do
And maybe you feel you'll end up with another broken heart
Trying to face something that seems way too hard

But it's too hard to hold on to all of the pain
And it's too hard to relive it over and over again
It's too hard when the memories have control over you

Some say it's too hard to forgive
I say it's too hard not to
It's too hard not to
It's too hard not to

Maybe you're trying to handle
Losing someone that you thought would be there
And maybe you're feeling anxious
'Cause it left you lonely, confused and so scared
And maybe you feel you'll end up with another broken heart

Trying to face something that seems way too hard
But it's too hard to hold on to all of the pain
And it's too hard to relive it over and over again

It's too hard when the memories have control over you
Some say it's too hard to forgive
I say it's too hard not to
It's too hard not to
It's too hard

Some things so senseless and some things so selfish
Try to come and tear your world apart
Someone so loving and someone so selfless
Will help you when you're ready to restart

It's too hard to hold on to all of the pain
And it's too hard to relive it over and over again
It's too hard when the memories have control over you

Some say it's too hard to forgive
I say it's too hard not to
It's too hard not to
I say it's too hard not to

It's too hard not to
It's too hard not to forgive
Lord, help me to forgive
Because it's too hard not to
