Lyric of the Week | Deer Tick > May 11, 2009

I woke up this morning
I was feeling that this should end
Using all that time
And all my lucky friends

Videos by American Songwriter

I’ve got a bad defense
And it’s not just circumstance
That put me here
In a bad, bad place where I stand

And you don’t know how easy it is
No, you don’t know how easy it is
You were never there
No, never there

Out of the door
With the devil in my eyes
That son of a bitch crossed me once
But he won’t cross me twice

Little angel on my shoulder
Well she better be right
She got me flying like a wild man
In the middle of the night

And you don’t know how easy it is
No, you don’t know how easy it is
You were never there
No, never there

This whole world
And everything you see
There ain’t nothing that’ll keep you from
Getting to me

No, you don’t know how easy it is
No, you don’t know how easy it is
You got no idea how easy it is
No, you don’t know how easy it is
You were never there
No, never there
Never there
You were never there

“Easy” Written by John Joseph McCauley III
