lyrics

it could be so easy to tell you
that nothing's changed
to act like it's all okay & pretend
everything's the same
it'd be so easy to tell everyone that i lied
it was just "something i had to try"
but i'm back now, in my right mind
but life's not easy

i don't make decisions lightly
& i know this one is huge
but how does me learning who i really am
make it difficult for you?
i mean it when i tell you
this has always been in my heart
so please don't say i need to be quiet
as i'm trying to live out loud

'cause if you love me like you say you do
why are you making it so damn hard
for me to speak my truth?

chorus

for every voice in my head who says "be who you are"
there are twenty outside who say "don't"
there are millions of reasons why i could give up
but i'm telling you right now i won't

so if you're happy for me that i'm living my life
why is it suddenly so damn hard
for you to look me in the eye?

chorus

so if you love me like you say you do
why do you only love me if i live like you?

it could be so easy to tell you
that nothing's changed
it could be so easy to pretend everything's the same
yeah it would be so easy to just cover up the truth
oh it would be so easy - so much easier for you
