Easy Does It
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy Lyrics

When there's only one thing I can do
Even when I'm left with no other choice, I struggle to come to terms with it

Well you know that I still don't want to do it
I'm hesitant to accept the only option and would rather avoid it

And where there's just one way to get through
Sometimes the only way out of a situation is not one that I'm comfortable with

Sometimes I still don't way to go through with it
It's tough for me to proceed even when there's no other solution

There are other ways I used to think
I've had different perspectives in the past and have faced diverse challenges

To find my way around
I've explored diverse routes to circumnavigate tough situations

The wood, and the caves, and the bad women's ways
I've been through forests, caverns, and been lured astray by wicked people too

That were always to be found
Such threats were always lurking and had to be faced with bravery

And I have done enough right
I've made some good choices and accomplished well in some situations

Dirt and wrong now can both stir my mind
However, both success and failure have shaped my thoughts and made me introspective

And love I can find it again
I'm open to love and recognize that it can come anytime

In someone sitting close in the flashes of sin
It could be anyone, even someone I meet randomly, when we both seek excitement and fun

Now there is just one way
Ultimately, there may only be a single way out of a challenge

To stretch out my arms and cry
Sometimes, all I can do is let it all out and seek comfort

To that just one day
I look forward to that day when I don't have to face any problem anymore

Number the friends and the family
In that moment, I would count family and true friends among my most valued possessions

That love me
Friends and family who support and care for me will make that perfect day even more special

Welcome the ring of the moonlight
The beauty of the night sky and its aura of tranquility can only add to the perfect moment

Above me
Under the open sky, I can only feel humbled by nature's splendor

And I wander and lay in whatever in old bed
Sometimes, as I roam or rest, memories come flooding back--memories of both good and bad times

With good earthly music singing into my head
A beautiful, melodious tune can make all worries fade away and bring music to my soul

Well there's a path
There's always a way to escape and search for happiness

There's a beach
The beautiful beach where I can sit, watch the waves, and reflect

There's a horseshoe crab
The majestic creature can remind me that there's beauty in every living thing

There's my brothers and my girlfriends
My siblings and my dear friends who I've grown to love

My mom and my dad
My dear parents who have always supported me throughout thick and thin

And there's me
And I realize that I have enough strength and resolve within myself to face any challenge

And that's all that needs to be
In the end, all that really matters is family, love, trust, and bravery

Oh, oh, oh, oh
The upbeat tune of the song reminds me to stay positive and hopeful in the face of any challenge
