Easy Way Out Lyrics - Making Mirrors - Gotye

Seventeen seconds and I'm over it 

Ready for the disconnect 

Putting on a brave face 

Trying not to listen 

To the voices in the back of my head 

But it's alright now 

(It's a distant memory baby) 

Alright now 

(You know you should just let it go) 

Some feelings have a habit of persisting 

Even though you wouldn't let it show 

Wearing me out 

(All this) 

Hanging around 

(It just starts) 

Getting me down 

(Till I'm just) 

Looking for an easy way out 

Brain-dead from boredom 

I'm led to distraction 

Scratching the surface of life 

Nothing really happens 

But it's easy to keep busy 

When you tell yourself you're traveling right 

But it's alright now 

(Was it really worth it baby?) 

Alright now 

(Was it just a waste of time?) 

Keep on second-guessing 

Use my memory like a weapon 

On everything I try 

Wearing me out 

(All this) 

Hanging around 

(It just starts) 

Getting me down 

(Till I'm just) 

Looking for an easy way out 

Wearing me out 

(But it's alright now) 

Hanging around 

(Alright now) 

Getting me down 

(But it's alright now) 

Looking for an easy way out
