Easier That Way

Intro: Verso 1: I've been thinking of the words I used to say when I was drinking Seems like it's only yesterday when I was heartache I didn't mean to treat you bad, but I was suffering from self-pity that I had And I was tired and I couldn't stand the pain I couldn't put that bottle down 'Cause it was easier that way Verso 2: Now, I don't wanna be the same man I was back then 'Cause I don't understand all those selfish little plans And when I look into my father’s eyes I see a torn and desperate man who couldn't put that bottle down 'Cause it was easier that way 'Cause it was easier that way I guess it's torture singing songs about the man I used to be I wonder if you sometimes see that man inside of me But I promise, I won't go back to way back then 'Cause I got tired of that selfish little man But I'm trying and I hope you understand that it's hard to put that bottle down But it's easier that way But it's easier that way Solo: I guess it's torture singing songs about the man I used to be I wonder if you sometimes see that man inside of me But I promise, I won't go back to way back then 'Cause I got tired of that selfish little man But I'm trying and I hope you understand that it's hard to put that bottle down But it's easier that way But it's easier that way But it's easier that way
