lyrics

No Easy Way

By; Tom Cusimano



Verse 1)

I wish I was enough

But in vain, I’m scared

For restless inside is a complicated man

With wishes and dreams and visions it seems

This debt is found pulling from these arms as they bleed

Away from these hands, away from these hands



Verse 2)

With this fear that’s inside that preys on my mind

For all of these lies that have run through my life

That hold me here as I stand, here as I stand

And there’s a devil whose eyes tear at these lines

That are strings on my mind that pull my thoughts

From where they have been, From where they have been



Pre-Chorus)

But it was all in the future then

Now I see these days as they come



Chorus)

Good or bad as they might have been

I’ve taken what I could from them

“Records on the wall,” she said

Like a drifter with a common bed



Verse 3)

He made it look so good

He made it look so easy

She made it look so hard

She made it look so fun

She cries, “You can only run so far as to escape

The pain of a run that has lasted too long.”



Repeat Pre-Chorus, Chorus)



Bridge)

Oh you can try to change it

But there’s no easy way out

It’s the picture of the form I once was

Now so easily doubt

Or you could run to face it

or fly just as they loose count

But the wisdom in your eyes the general surprise and that’s the only way out



Repeat Verse 1)

Repeat Pre-Chorus, Chorus)
