Easy to Stay

Defending my messes

I keep you second guessing

I’m dancing on fences

You never learn your lesson

Rejected advances

You give I take advantage

Won’t get too far with my heart if I push you away

If you’re gonna try to be mine make it easy to stay

Honestly it’s always been on my terms

Cleaning just enough for you to stay

I don’t want you seeing all of my hurt

Put my dirty laundry on display

I’m afraid that you’d wake up

And you won’t see me the same

Cause without all my make up

I can’t conceal all the pain

Easier to hide myself from you

Hard to show the truth

Defending my messes

I keep you second guessing

I’m dancing on fences

You never learn your lesson

Rejected advances

You give I take advantage

Won’t get too far with my heart if I push you away

If you’re gonna try to be mine make it easy to stay

All that I want is to be adored

Guts on the floor ready to explore me

All that I know is to slam the door

With my heart in a cage and this guard that I

made

All that I want is to give you more

Wanna talk it out but I cut it short

My heart on my sleeve and it’s getting worn

Do it all for the chase

But I’m trying to change

Defending my messes

I keep you second guessing

I’m dancing on fences

You never learn your lesson

Rejected advances

You give I take advantage

Won’t get too far with my heart if I push you away

If you’re gonna try to be mine make it easy to stay

Easier to hide myself from you

It’s hard to know the truth
