Is It Ever Gonna Be Easy

Is it ever gonna be easy

Try so hard, please release me

I know the hum of your voice should be the sweetest sound

But I could never really get your feet up off the ground

Is it ever gonna be easy

Try so hard, please release me

You got the softest lips but the sharpest mouth

Always ready with a hundred different ways to cut me down

Get my back on straight, keep my feet faced forward

Stick my hands up high

Let the light give way on the hardest day

Then I hear you say...

Is it ever gonna be easy

Try so hard, please release me

Try to reach for your hand, but there's no colder touch

Try to be a better man, but I don't try all that much

Is it ever gonna be easy

Is it ever gonna be easy

Is it ever gonna be easy

Please release me

Try to say the things that I said before

That would make you smile

But the language, babe, that we used to speak

Has been dead a while

Is it ever gonna be easy

Is it ever gonna be easy

Is it ever gonna be easy

Is it ever gonna be easy
