Lyrics

V1: It’s easy to be so young and naïve It’s easy to see all things as you want to see It’s easy to need what you want to be So damn easy Prechorus: But when that mindset starts to shatter Everything you thought becomes so scattered You’ll find yourself at odds with those you love and trust You’ll find yourself at odds with your own self Chorus: Tell me, what am I fighting for? When all the things of which I was sure Are nothing more than dreams I tell ya it’s heartbreaking Sweet innocence was pure I wish that there was a cure For growing up, and growing old And learning truths…I wish I was never told V2: It’s easy to love before they break your heart It’s easy to think there’s a plan from the start It’s easy to live your life without a care Too damn easy Prechorus: And when that mindset starts to unwind You want nothing more than just to crawl inside Erase the knowledge that led to your own self-destruct Erase the memory of childhood things Outro: Tell me why don’t you see when you look at me? Tell me why don’t you feel when you’re touching me? You say that you hear, but are you listening? You say that you care, but you’re still giving in Tell me why don’t you taste when you’re experiencing? Tell me why don’t you breathe if you are living? You say that you’re real, but all the symptoms show The lights are out, your story ends when the curtains close Copyright 2016 R. Perry/HER Records Inc/Socan/SAC
