Harder

from Grumpy Ghost by The Endless

/

about

An early but beloved song in our catalog. The bittersweet moment of realizing one’s inner strength.

lyrics

when you knew me I was a willow
bowing to every breeze
you could tell me I was a vampire
and I'd suck 'til you were on your knees

now I am harder than I ever thought I could
and if you are a soothing balm
I wish you would

when you knew me I was smaller
I couldn't catch the latch from where I stood
but when the spit flew from the Furies
I only did what any woman would

when you knew me I was a dandelion
and you had the breath to make me fly
but roots are holding and color's showing
and where I dispersed I multiplied

I am softer than the sweetest summer would
and if you want to pray to me
I think you could
