Easy Street
Some meditation teacher said
"Close your eyes and send some light"
So I sent you what's left of mine
Inside my mind
When I let you call me your baby
We were both lying
Make believe
I wasn't the one taking care of you
When I was the only one who was trying to
When I stop to think about us getting high, hanging out
I can convince myself loving you wasn't hell
And I should wait around for us to grow up and out of all our history
Then we could finally stop to think about
The words that come out our mouth
Before the profanity
Oh, what a fantasy
You and me, living on easy street
M-I-A, Sacramento to OC
I don't like flying but I loved how you'd hold me
So I followed your laugh anywhere
Now your laugh follows me everywhere
When I stop to think about us getting high, hanging out
I can convince myself loving you wasn't hell
And I should wait around for us to grow up and out of all our history
Then we could finally stop to think about
The words that come out our mouth
Before the profanity
Oh, what a fantasy
You and me, living on easy street
Is it your turn or mine to over-romanticize
What's average at best in the perfect light?
"You're my little evil twin"
"I will never love again"
You say "come back to me, I need you under my skin"
Is it your turn or mine to kneel by the bedside
And beg forgiveness for sins we didn't commit?
"Sorry" is our sacred prayer
We are going nowhere
Over and over and over and over
Again
When I'm caught up thinking 'bout us getting high, hanging out
I remind myself
Loving you was hell
And I gotta wait around for me
To grow up and out of my insecurity
Find and new fantasy
You and me won't make it to easy street
You and me won't make it to easy street
"Close your eyes and send some light"
So I sent you what's left of mine
Inside my mind
When I let you call me your baby
We were both lying
Make believe
I wasn't the one taking care of you
When I was the only one who was trying to
When I stop to think about us getting high, hanging out
I can convince myself loving you wasn't hell
And I should wait around for us to grow up and out of all our history
Then we could finally stop to think about
The words that come out our mouth
Before the profanity
Oh, what a fantasy
You and me, living on easy street
M-I-A, Sacramento to OC
I don't like flying but I loved how you'd hold me
So I followed your laugh anywhere
Now your laugh follows me everywhere
When I stop to think about us getting high, hanging out
I can convince myself loving you wasn't hell
And I should wait around for us to grow up and out of all our history
Then we could finally stop to think about
The words that come out our mouth
Before the profanity
Oh, what a fantasy
You and me, living on easy street
Is it your turn or mine to over-romanticize
What's average at best in the perfect light?
"You're my little evil twin"

Is it your turn or mine to kneel by the bedside
And beg forgiveness for sins we didn't commit?
"Sorry" is our sacred prayer

Over and over and over and over
Again
When I'm caught up thinking 'bout us getting high, hanging out
I remind myself
Loving you was hell
And I gotta wait around for me
To grow up and out of my insecurity
Find and new fantasy
You and me won't make it to easy street
You and me won't make it to easy street
