[Verse 1]
Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough
You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

[Chorus]
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

[Verse 2]
We fight all the time
You and I, that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need, I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

[Pre-Chorus]
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

[Chorus]
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

[Bridge]
I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
But can you hear me when I sing?
You're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, hey now
Still gotta let you know
A house doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone

[Chorus]
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

[Outro]
Sometimes you can't make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
