Easier (EP Version) Lyrics

Bags packed, sitting at the front door

I don't know how I'll find the strength

Put it off just a little more

Can't let you see that I'm afraid

Stay safe hiding under cover

So far away from the passing rain

Paint my face a stronger color

No time left now to hesitate

With a kiss goodnight

I'm saying my goodbye

Let me hold you tight

Just one more time

Please stay asleep

It's easier when you're not here

Please stay asleep

It's easier when you're not here

The background's bursting with light

We'll keep pretending it's not our time

Still wishing I could change my mind

Withhold delivering my last line

So collapse with me

Down on the floor

Choke out the words

"I love you more"

"Please stay with me"

You're calling from the other room

I need to leave

But I promise that I'll be home soon

Please stay asleep

It's easier when you're not here

Please stay asleep

It's easier when you're not here

(Please stay asleep)

The background's bursting with light

We'll keep pretending it's not our time

(It's easier when you're not here)

Let me hold you tight just one more time

(Please stay asleep)

Put it off just a little more

Can't let you see that I'm afraid

It's easier when you're not here

Please stay asleep

And I promise that I'll be home soon
