Easier That Way |
| The sun is shining through the trees, I’m gazing at the sky |
| Not long ago the winter freeze was taking its toll on me |
| And there are people all around me, struggling to make ends meet |
| While those who are responsible are living down on easy street |
| They didn’t cause it, we only said they did |
| They got it wrong and we have to pay for it |
| They sold a lie and then got away with it |
| Cause it’s easier that way |
| Easier that way |
| If there’s justice in the world I guess |
| It must be hard to see |
| We should focus on togetherness |
| It’s the only way to change things |
| It’s not easy staying faithful |
| To hold on to belief |
| When your whole damn world’s been stolen and you’re trying to catch the thief |
| They didn’t cause it we only said they did |
| They got it wrong and we have to pay for it |
| They sold a lie and then got away with it |
| Cause it’s easier that way, easier that way |
| Why in the world do our leaders turn away from it |
| Knowing full well that we all need a cure for it |
| Time and again the poor people pay for it |
| Cause its easier that way, easier that way |
| Ok let’s take a moment to reflect |
| They didn’t cause it, we only said they did |
| They got it wrong and we have to pay for it |
| They sold a lie and then got away with it |
| Why in the world do our leaders turn away from it |
| Knowing full well that we all need a cure for it |
| Time and again the poor people pay for it |
| Cause its easier that way |
| Easier that way |
| Could you turn it off for a second? |
