Make It Easy

[Verse 1]

Every now and then you cross my mind

When I drive by your apartment

Or I see you on a screen

You always said that you're so tired

If I ever have a problem

Leave a message in your dreams, so


[Refrain 1]

When you start scratching your head

While you are lying in bed

Thinking about what you said

While I'll be looking ahead

To all the love I can spread

With those who love me instead

And when you said "It'll be fine"

While you were taking your time

And you were drinking my wine

While I was losing my mind

Tirеd of breaking my spine

So now I'm drawing the linе


[Chorus]

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Well, you never treat me

Like you wanna keep me, no

Ooh-ooh-ooh

So, go ahead and leave me

I can make it easy


[Verse 2]

You told all our friends you felt so low

Unaware of complications

Like I never let you know

And suddenly it all went up in flames

But you didn't try to save it

All you did was run away


[Refrain 2]

So, when you start writing your friends

Hovering over the send

Thinking about how it ends

While I'll be making amends

For any time I pretended

You were ever my friend

And when you start blowing a fuse

And while you're spreading your views

Like you got nothing to lose

Remember you get to choose

But I can also refuse

'Cause you were missing the cues


[Chorus]

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Well, you never treat me

Like you wanna keep me, no

Ooh-ooh-ooh

So, go ahead and leave me

I can make it easy

Ooh-ooh-ooh


[Bridge]

Or maybe we'll keep in touch

Or maybe I said too much

I said too much

I said too much

Oh, yeah

We're not gonna keep in touch

'Cause baby I said too much

I said too much

I said too much

Yeah, yeah


[Interlude]

Well, you never treat me

Like you wanna keep me (No, you never treat me like you wanna keep me)

Ooh-ooh-ooh (Oh, no)

So go ahead and leave me

I can make it easy


[Refrain 1]

When you start scratching your head

While you are lying in bed

Thinking about what you said

While I'll be looking ahead

To all the love I can spread

With those who love me instead

And when you said "It'll be fine"

While you were taking your time

And you were drinking my wine

While I was losing my mind

Tired of breaking my spine

So now I'm drawing the line
