Why Don't We Lyrics

"Let Me Down Easy (Lie)"

I know sometimes you get pissed off
I know you can't stand it when
I canceled plans, I brushed you off
Yeah, we never planned it, yeah
I know sometimes that I fuck up
And when I think I don't, I need your love (Yeah)

If you wake up one day and don't feel the same
Would you still smile when the feeling fades?
Look to the side when I'm saying your name
Say it's all fine, baby, lie to my face
Who am I to make you stay?
Baby, let me down easy
If you wake up one day and don't feel the same, will you?
Will you?

La-la-la, la-la-lie, baby, let me down easy
La-la-la, la-la-lie, will you? Will you?
La-la-la, la-la-lie, baby, let me down easy
La-la-la, la-la-lie, will you? Will you?

Say shit, say shit we don't mean at all
Don't pay attention when they're not involved
Complications, they can't be solved
If you walk away then we might lose it all
When you walked into my life I'm feeling different now
And when we wake up I said "can we switch positions now?"
And your friends, they got opinions but they getting loud
But you know you mean the most, don't start actin' different now

If you wake up one day and don't feel the same
Would you still smile when the feeling fades?
Look to the side when I'm saying your name
Say it's all fine, baby, lie to my face
Who am I to make you stay?
Baby, let me down easy
If you wake up one day and don't feel the same, will you?
Will you?

La-la-la, la-la-lie, baby, let me down easy
La-la-la, la-la-lie, will you? Will you?
La-la-la, la-la-lie, (Oh) baby, let me down easy
La-la-la, la-la-lie, will you? Will you?

If you wake up one day and don't feel the same
Would you still smile when the feeling fades?
Look to the side when I'm saying your name
Say it's all fine, baby, lie to my face
Who am I to make you stay?
Baby, let me down easy
If you wake up one day and don't feel the same, will you?
Will you?

"'Let Me Down Easy (Lie)' is a real, open, and honest song about being in a relationship and feeling your significant other start to lose feelings. It's asking them to 'let me down easy' instead of being too harsh. It's one of those songs that has sad undertones, but because it's talking about the human experience and is relatable, it overall leaves you in a good mood," explained Jonah Marais of Why Don't We.
