Hard To Please
State Champs Lyrics

You've got a plan inside a deep breath,
You have a plan that you're trying to formulate, but it's difficult to make sense of it all and calm down.

but it always comes out the same.
Despite your efforts to come up with a new plan, they always end up being the same as your previous ones.

I never said there'd be a last chance.
I never promised that you'd always have another opportunity to try again.

Looks like I'm leaving the fast lane.
It seems that I'm going to slow down and take a different approach to my life.

I've been told to find The Finer Things,
People have advised me to seek out the finer things in life.

but you know that won't make sense to me.
However, I'm not sure I understand the appeal or why it matters so much.

You followed your past mistakes.
You made the same mistakes in the past, and because of that, you're not sure how to move forward.

Whether you bend or break,
Regardless of how difficult things get, whether you're flexible or rigid,

I still wait for you to cope.
I'm still waiting for you to find a way to deal with everything.

But you ignored the call 'cause you grew up.
You missed the opportunity because you're too focused on growing up and being an adult.

You'll be thinking all our memories have made you hard to please now.
You're starting to think that our shared memories have led you to have unrealistic expectations and desires.

Maybe I'm a bad person.
I'm starting to think that perhaps I'm a fundamentally flawed individual.

Maybe I don't wanna walk before I crawl.
Perhaps I'm afraid of moving too fast and want to take things one step at a time.

It only matters if it's worth it,
I only want to pursue things that are truly meaningful and fulfilling.

so does it even matter at all?
I'm starting to wonder if anything really does matter in the grand scheme of things.

Take what's left, make it your last request.
Take whatever you have left and use it to make one final request or plea.

I think it's obvious we'll both escape the selfishness before I'm gone.
I believe that we'll both be able to move past our selfish tendencies before it's too late.

I'm turning pages in a place that I know.
I'm revisiting things I'm familiar with and turning over new ideas.

You've got your wages, but you've got nothing to show.
You may have a good income, but you don't have anything to show for it in terms of emotional or personal fulfillment.

It only matters if it's worth it.
I only want to pursue things that are truly meaningful and fulfilling.

I think I'm just afraid to fall.
I believe that I'm only afraid of falling short or failing to meet my own expectations.
