Easier

[Verse 1]

I know it's been a minute since we last spoke

Been every type of bitter this year

There's something sentimental 'bout the thought of it all

But your tears are all I hear

I should've loved you better

I wish I could've been there

I wish we never met so maybe then I wouldn't see you everywhere

But you're so independent, need no one but yourself

I don't know how you do it, inhibition for my guilt's too coarse

I madе a mistake

Pushed you away, so I grievеd your loss

Killed every single memory, killed every thought, killed everything

[Chorus]

'Cause it might be easier that way

If I never had to see your face

If I could pretend we never met

Maybe then I'd feel okay

But how can I act like you're a stranger?

If you were the only one who knew me

I live in a city full of people, but I am alone

[Bridge]

The comfort of your arms

Was the only thing I knew

Getting out of bed is easy without you

The silence in my car helps me focus when I drive

It used to be so hard when I had you by my side

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

Waking up at night, ripping out my hair

I'm used to having fights, used to hurting everybody that I care for

It's unfair, everybody lives their own life

That I'm never there for, and I lie and I steal time from everyone who ever cried, when I cry, lights on

You can put it on my grave when I die

At the top of the plaque, "Here lies in this tomb a fucking waste of a man"

I got to learn to let go, I got to learn to move on

Got a lot I don't know, I have to learn to let go

If I don't change who I am, I'ma die 'fore I'm old

But I can't help but hide myself behind my world of lies

I made to cope with who I lost, I killed you here

[Chorus]

'Cause it might be easier that way

If I never had to see your face

If I could pretend we never met

Maybe then I'd feel okay

But how can I act like you're a stranger?

If you were the only one who knew me

I live in a city full of people, but I am alone

[Outro]

(Alone)

(Ahh, ahh, ahh)

(Ahh, ahh, ahh)

(Ahh, ahh, ahh)
