Too Easy
Navigating Life's Twists: Unveiling the Meaning Behind BORDERLINES' 'Too Easy'
Lyrics
Well it's too damn easy when you lose your mind
Expressing how losing one's mind can make life excessively challenging.
And things get heavy and you're tired of trying
Describing the burdensome feeling when faced with difficulties and exhaustion from constant efforts.
Yeah you're tired of trying
Reiterating the weariness and frustration from persistent attempts.
When you can't get near it, it might as well call your name
Suggesting that when you can't approach a goal, it feels as if the goal is deliberately avoiding you.
As you scream goddammit and give in again
Expressing frustration through exclaiming "goddammit" and succumbing to challenges once again.
And give in again
Repeating the idea of yielding to difficulties.
You've got to give it time
Encouraging patience and the importance of giving time for things to unfold.
Well it's so damn easy when you think you've won
Highlighting how achieving success might seem effortless at first.
And the days get longer, but they've just begun
Acknowledging that even after success, challenges persist and the journey has just begun.
Yeah they've just begun
Reiterating the idea that challenges continue despite initial victories.
You've got to give it time
Reemphasizing the need for patience and allowing time for resolution.
Well you say you stopped drinking
Indicating a positive change, like stopping drinking, and modifying one's appearance.
And you shaved your beard
Further describing a personal change, such as shaving a beard.
Well the man might like you, or he'll think you're weird
Suggesting that societal judgment may vary based on personal choices, leading to acceptance or being perceived as strange.
Yeah he'll think you're weird
Reiterating potential social perceptions and their impact on one's reputation.
There goes your career
Imagining a negative consequence for one's career based on a single mistake (one bad beer).
Over one bad beer
Highlighting the fragility of a career and how one misstep can have lasting consequences.
How about that? Cheers
Concluding with a casual toast ("Cheers") that may carry a touch of irony or bitterness.
