Easy Way Out - 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

Til 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

Til 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
