Lyrics
Easy way out
Expressing the desire or intention to take the path of least resistance or avoid difficulties.
You said so yourself,
Referencing a previous statement or acknowledgment that the speaker made regarding taking the easy way out.
I always took the easy way out,
Admitting a tendency to choose the simpler or less challenging options in life.
But you can't see me coming down when you're jumping ship.
Highlighting the difficulty of being noticed or recognized when making a significant change or decision.
I thought we wanted more,
Expressing a belief or expectation that there was a shared desire for something more meaningful.
I guess I was wrong.
Acknowledging an error in judgment, realizing that the expectation was incorrect.
You can't take the easy way out,
Reiterating that opting for the easy way out is not a viable option anymore.
It's not that easy now.
Emphasizing that the situation has become more complicated or challenging, making an easy solution difficult.
You can't take that easy way,
Stating that choosing the previously easy path is no longer a simple or straightforward option.
And you'll think I'll stay,
Suggesting a belief that the speaker will not choose to remain in the current situation.
But like the years,
Drawing a parallel between the passage of time (years) and the speaker's gradual detachment or distancing.
I'm drifting away.
Indicating a sense of gradual separation or emotional drifting away over time.
You said so yourself,
Repeating a previous acknowledgment or statement made by the speaker.
This time,
Emphasizing the current moment or situation, suggesting a change in approach or decision-making.
I won't take the easy way out.
Declaring a commitment to avoid the easy way out in the present circumstance.
The truth is what I'm all about.
Affirming a commitment to truthfulness and sincerity in actions or decisions.
But I should have known,
Expressing regret or realization that the other person's behavior remains consistent or unchanged.
You're the same way you were before.
Observing that the other person continues to exhibit the same characteristics as before.
