Want you to see my point of view   I only want the best for you   Understand I'm not being cruel   I see he treats you like a fool      You're heard the truth   You've heard it all   You're trying to run but   You can't crawl      See nothing's changed   The situation's just the same      He's given you nothing   But taken it all   You're taking the easy way out   I'll say it again like   I've said it before   Stop taking the easy way out   You're taking the easy way out      Each night you call   More tears again   Time to accept he'll never change   It's your life   Your choice   Your own despair   But your burden's far too much to bear      You know the truth   You've heard it all   Just trying to catch you   Before you fall   See nothing's new   The situation's up to you      He's given you nothing   But taken it all   You're taking the easy way out   I'll say it again like   I've said it before   Stop taking the easy way out   You're taking the easy way out   You're taking the easy way out      You turn to me   'Cause you can't see   That there's a better way to be   So close your eyes and say goodbye...      He's given you nothing   But taken it all   You're taking the easy way out   I'll say it again like   I've said it before   Stop taking the easy way out   You're taking the easy way out (taking the easy way out)   You're taking the easy way out (taking the easy way out)      You've got to give it up   Turn around   Walk away   Don't look down      You're taking the easy way out      You've got to give it up   Turn around   Walk away   Don't look down      You're taking the easy way out
