LYRICS:
WE KNOW, IF THEY KNEW
You try to plan it all out, make it turn out right
But every day, it's the same old fight
And you have good intentions, your motivations are pure
But some days, even you're not sure
It's late when you get home again, your time is hard to keep
Yea your body's tired, but you still can't sleep
And every night it keeps playing, again and again in your head
With every time they hurt you, with every word that was said
But I know, if they knew
Just how hard you try
Then I know
That they wouldn't be so hard on you
It's a thankless job, hard work without any pay
And all you ask, is a little thanks
But you're not one to give in, cause you've been through it before
And you know, you'll go through it again
And sometimes I can't find the words, to say at the right time
And some days I don't take the time, to say the right words
But I know, and you know
Just how hard you try
And we know, if they knew...
So hard on you ...
They wouldn't be so
