Lyrics
IT'S SO EASY
[Intro]
(Verse 1)
You walked through the door like a seasonal change
Moving the furniture, shifting the range
Of how I perceive all the space in this room
Just a flick of your wrist and you finished the gloom
I was braced for the impact, the grit and the grind
The heavy lifting of a heart left behind
But you didn't stumble, you didn't break sweat
You're the quietest storm that I haven't seen yet.
(Chorus)
0:43
So how did you make it so easy?
Like pulling the stars from the dark of the sky
How did you make it look breezy?
With a ghost of a smile and a soft little sigh
I was ready for bridges to burn in the rain
For the tangled-up nerves and the long-distance pain
But you untied the knots while I caught my breath
How did you make it so easy?
To love me to death.
(Verse 2)
I'd written the script with the tears and the walls
The echo of slamming and shadowy halls
I put on my armor, I sharpened my tongue
For the battles we fought before they'd begun
But you didn't argue, you didn't deflect
You just cleaned up the rubble with total neglect
For the weight that I carried, the stones in my hand
You turned all my ocean back into the sand.
(Chorus)
So how did you make it so easy?
Like pulling the stars from the dark of the sky
How did you make it look breezy?
With a ghost of a smile and a soft little sigh
I was ready for bridges to burn in the rain
For the tangled-up nerves and the long-distance pain
But you untied the knots while I caught my breath
How did you make it so easy?
To love me to death.
(Bridge)
Is it magic, or mercy, or something I'm missing?
Are you hiding the labor behind all the kissing?
I'm looking for seams, for a hairline fracture
The cost of the labor, the flaw in the architecture
But it's seamless, it's endless, it's calm in the light
You made the wrong turn feel like walking home right.
