Easy’s Hard Part

I keep your name out my mouth now

but it still comes up when I ain’t thinking

you walked off like it weren’t nothing to hold

didn’t even look back long enough

I stood there waiting on a reason

guess I don’t get one from you

I tried on that blue dress you liked couldn’t stand how it

sat on me

you said once it fit just right now it feels like I’m

wearing a lie I pulled it off before the mirror caught me

I ain’t who you stayed for

I wasn’t enough to keep

you let go without shaking

I wasn’t enough to keep you here

and I keep turning that over Was there something I couldn't give

something you stopped seeing in me

You made leaving look so easy

now easy's killing me

You tell me this ain’t on me

but you ain’t here to prove it

I go back through what I said

try to find where I lost you

every word feels like a loose nail now

and I keep stepping on it

Say it plain if it’s me

don’t leave me guessing in it

you walked easy out that door like there wasn’t much to carry

I need something to hold still

even if it cuts

I wasn’t enough to keep

you dropped me like it settled things I wasn’t enough to keep

you close and I don’t know who that makes me Was there

something I couldn't give

or something you just couldn't see

You made leaving look so easy

but you left the hard part here with me

I keep your name out my mouth now

that's about the best I can do

You walked away without a reason

and left me making one for you
