lyrics

Because It's Easy

I'll talk myself out of thinking clearly
Take myself outta the game early
Throw a sad face when there's no reason
Destroy myself 'cause it's easy

Hold my hand above a fire
Hang my head to the muck and the mire
Walk around outside my body
Feel angry and let it please me

No no no no no no...
There's a situation here
Don't walk away
Call on higher power
Call in a favor

I'll question what I believe is true
I find that nothing is ever new
I insult what I don't understand
And hide, because it's easy

I avoid what makes me wanna run
Pick a fight with a loaded gun
I'll get in the dirt when I'm feeling bad
and I do...just because it's so easy
