Solitude Is Easy

from More Matter With Less Art by Zachary Crawford

/

lyrics

Take off the face
that you need around here.
You’ve been keeping it near
every day.
But who are you when
no one’s watching you then
my love?

Who’s that in there?
Maybe turn down the smile.
You’ve been stuck for a while
in every way.
That feeling you feel
is just part of the deal
my love.

You’ve been taking every pill you can
trying to change the masterplan.
Turning up the music.
Chasing out the dark.

You’ve been dropping all the friends you know
cos it’s safer just to let them go.
Solitude is easy
when you’re on your own.

You’ve been wishing it would fade away.
Hoping for another day.
Waiting for a change,
a sign, a call, a sound.

It’s getting nearer.
It’s getting harder.
It’s never coming back.
You’ve given everything you could
my love.

You’ve been trying to sleep
and fighting with it
but you’ve been losing a bit
every day.
So why are you here
when nobody’s near
my love?
