All alone in the cold, the fear and the snow
Bear down in your head, the things that they said
You float in the dark, battered and scarred
By the clouds you invented, the stones that you bled

A moment of truth washes over you
This melancholy doesn't have to be
All it takes is a step to be over the edge
And you're falling, you're falling, you fall

Can you take it harder

The man on the screen looked so serene
As he handed the news that more than a few
Had died in the blast, there were kids in the car
Hundreds were hurt, all in a day's work

A world gone to dark, falling apart
Relentless they come, images set to stun
You're crawling, you're crawling

Can you take it harder

A moment of truth washes over you
This misery doesn't have to be
All it takes is a step and you're over the dread
You're flying, you're flying

Can you take it harder

Don't you worry, you're not alone, don't take it hard now
Never fear 'cause you're not alone, don't take it hard now

Can you take it harder
Can you take it harder
Can you take it harder
Can you take it hard, take it hard
Can you take it
