Discover the story of the song > Don’t Be So Hard – The Audition

The song tells the story of the protagonist who is being hard on himself. He acknowledges that the name of the game is humiliation and that the way they play has its confrontation. His partner is asking him to hold her and he responds with "If I were to..." but he can't let her go. He tells his partner that it's all in her hands so he'll do what he can so she can do what she has to. The song ends with repetition of her asking him to hold her and him responding with "It's all in your hands so I'll do what I can so you, you can do what you have to."
