Easier

It's easy to take the easy way Easy to pretend that what is, isn't Living without a care because you don't believe in caring Dying without a care because your life didn't matter You made it to the roof, but you kicked away the ladder It carried you up, but you say it isn't there How does that work?  Don't ask me Because I'm wrong, right?  Listen You know it's right but you choose left Walking away because it's easy, that road leads to pain To death and burns, cuts Rainbows fade, unicorns aren't real, but it sure is fun to pretend Right? It's fun to write nasty things, fun to offend and upend Fun to push and pull, throw rocks, fire shots Chainsaws don't give a peaceful sound Guns hurt your ears, harsh sounds It's merely a sound, but harsh sounds can break your ears Harsh thoughts can break your mind Thoughts of death can bring it, hasten it No need to be chasing it.
