It's easy to hide behind a smile, behind an ugly grace

It's easy to talk behind the back, it's harder to the face

It's easy to drink than to think, it's all so easy then

It's easy to shy away from life, it's hard to be the man



Oh come on listen to me, I can't complain I got it easy

I've everything I thought I always wanted

Even though I'm keeping busy

there's something more that still escapes me

I had it then, but now it's gone away
