Easy for you to say
Easy for you to do
Easy when you don't sleep alone
Easy when you can brush it under the rug
Easy when you have someone you can lie to you so you don't have to lie to yourself
Easy for you to ignore what feels wrong instead of what feels right
Easy for you...
It's easy for you when we don't get to see all the cracks
Easy for you just light another cigarette and numb the pain for another day
Easy for you to act like I don't exist and go about saying you're okay
Easy for you to point out my mistakes
Easy for you to swallow your pride and reach out
It's easy for you when pride isn't the only thing keeping you warm at night
It would be easier if the skies stayed grey and the thunderstorms never went away
It's not easy for me to make myself vulnerable
It's not easy for me anymore
It's not easy to put up a front and act like I'm okay anymore
It's not easy to breathe anymore
It's not easy to be fair to be the good guy
It's not easy for me
It hasn't been easy not once
So how is it so easy for you?
