[Live Intro — spoken] "Alright... This one ain't a warning. It's just the truth." [amp hum] "If you're coming close... Come close awake." [RIFF] [Verse 1] I got some miles on me That don't wash off Couple hard lessons I paid full cost I know how to want you I know how to leave Used to think those were the same thing Took me years to disagree [Pre-Chorus] So I ain't gonna promise What the night can't prove You want something real? Then baby, Here's the truth [Chorus] THERE AIN'T NO EASY WAY NO CLEAN HANDS NO PERFECT END IF YOU WANT THIS HEART DON'T COME HERE TRYING TO FIX IT NO EASY WAY NO SAINT NO SECOND SKIN LOVE ME WITH YOUR EYES OPEN OR DON'T LOVE ME THEN YEAH— NO EASY WAY [Verse 2] I've been the bad call At a quarter past two Been somebody's reason For swearing off dudes like me too I ain't proud of all of it Ain't hiding none You can learn a lot about a man By what he does When the damage is done [Pre-Chorus] I don't need you saving me I don't need another judge Just don't call it forever If tonight is all it was [Chorus] THERE AIN'T NO EASY WAY NO CLEAN HANDS NO PERFECT END IF YOU WANT THIS HEART DON'T COME HERE TRYING TO FIX IT NO EASY WAY NO SAINT NO SECOND SKIN LOVE ME WITH YOUR EYES OPEN OR DON'T LOVE ME THEN NO EASY WAY [Heavy Break] [guitar chugs] I can get mean I can get gone I can stand there dead still When everything says run I can break a door I can break a jaw Took me long enough to learn That ain't strength at all [RIFF STOPS] Strength? [beat] Knowing you could... And choosing what you do. [Bridge — slow, dirty blues] Baby, don't love me For the man I might become Don't hold me like a project Don't mistake heat for the sun If I stay I stay because I chose it If you leave I won't call that wrong Love ain't keeping somebody Love is knowing When to hold on And when not to [Guitar Solo — long bends, feedback, then erupts] [Final Chorus] THERE AIN'T NO EASY WAY LONG NIGHTS OLD SINS I'VE BEEN EVERY MAN I DON'T WANNA BE AGAIN NO EASY WAY NO HALO NO PRETEND LOVE ME WITH YOUR EYES OPEN AND I'LL MEET YOU WHERE I AM NO EASY WAY NO EASY WAY IF YOU WANT SOMETHING REAL— STAY AWAKE [Outro — riff slows] I ain't asking you To understand everything Just don't love What you made up about me [feedback] NO EASY— [final hit] WAY
