Greg Holden - I Don't Know What To Tell You lyrics

When I grew up I went to school, without a care in the world
I knew not of what would come
But my teenage years were full of fear, and a pain undeserved
None of which can be undone

I don't know what to tell you
Life is hard and the world is broken
I don't know how to help you
But I'll try my best to teach you something

As I got old I understood
That some people aren't so good
But how are you supposed to know?
When some disguise themselves as saints
Some hide behind their states
And some are right under your nose

I don't know what to tell you
Life is hard and the world is broken
I don't know how to help help you
But I'll try my best to teach you something

I know it won't be easy
To keep you safe from the dark and hateful
I just hope you believe me
That from the day you arrived I've felt so hopeful

Everything I have is yours, from now on and from before
The wins, the defeats, the faulty techniques
And the way I live life with one foot out the door

I don't know what to tell you
Life is hard and the world is broken
I don't know how to help help you
But I'll try my best to teach you something

I know it won't be easy
To keep you safe from the dark and hateful
I just hope you believe me
That from the day you arrived I've felt so hopeful
