"The Easy Way Out" lyrics

"The Easy Way Out"

Sometimes the fear is a friend
They say in the end
It comes out even
The brinkman could spirit away
Your world in a day
We're not breathing

Eyes shut and count up to ten
And douse me again
In cold water

I'm taking the easy way out again
And I've got my heart in my mouth
To jump out the window and shatter it
To pieces

Tuesday, we'll drink up the sun
We'll show everyone
We're not listening
This is the night of the dead
The holes in your head
Are still glistening

Do you think you could manage a smile
While we disembowel
Your grandfather?

Taking the easy way out again
I got my heart in my mouth
Jump out the window and shatter it
To pieces
