"Easier By Now" lyrics

One, two
One, two, three

I'm 10 years into a 10-year town
Feeling ten years away from 'I made it'
I've been eight years sober now
Ain't a night where I don't want to break it
And I'm six months from that breakup
With the girl I thought I'd marry
Been the best man for all my best friends
Yeah, I'm getting by but just barely

Yeah, I thought it'd be easier by now
Thought that I would have it all figured out
But the more I learn the less I know
Yeah, the farther I get down the road
Oh I'm more lost than I am found
Yeah, I thought it'd be easier by now
Easier by now

Four AMs and overtimes
Sacrificing a life for a living
Putting too much in and somehow I'm
Still not getting as much as I'm giving
And this zero proof won't cut it
When I need that sweet relief
It's harder than I thought it'd be

I thought it'd be easier by now
Thought that I would have it all figured out
But the more I learn the less I know
Yeah, the farther I get down the road
Oh I'm more lost than I am found
Yeah, I thought it'd be easier by now
Easier by now

By now

They say time heals all wounds
Well, I hope that time is coming pretty soon

Yeah, I thought it'd be easier by now
Thought that I would have it all figured out
But the more I learn the less I know
Yeah, the farther I get down the road
Oh I'm more lost than I am found
Yeah, I thought it'd be easier by now
Easier by now

Easier by now
Easier by now
