Lyrics

Quick, Painless, and Easy

Anyway, you will take what you need

Anyway, you will take it from me

Straight, straight, straight to the ledge

Lose yourself in the sound

Look out over the edge

I know how you'll go down

Anyway, you will get what you want

Why should I wait for that day to come?

Straight, straight, straight to the ledge

One last smile and you're gone

Step out over the edge

As if nothing is wrong

It will be quick and painless and easy

Quick and painless and easy

I don't want you to leave me

But you'll go anyway

Straight, straight, straight to the ledge

Lose yourself in the sound

Look out over the edge

I know how you'll go down

It will be quick and painless and easy

Quick and painless and easy

I don't want you to leave me

But you'll go anyway

Anyway...

Anyway
