Ease
Broods Troye Sivan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm down to my skin and bone
And my mommy, she can't put down the phone
And stop asking how I'm doing all alone, alone
But the truth is the stars are falling, ma
And the wolves are out calling, ma
And my home has never felt this far

But all this driving
Is driving me crazy
And all this moving
Is proving to get the best of me
And I've been trying to hide it
But lately
Every time I think I'm better
Pickin' my head up, getting nowhere

Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night

Now I'm down to my skin and bones
My baby listens to me on the phone
But I can't help feeling like I'm all alone, all alone
The truth is, the stars are falling, babe
And I'd never ever thought that I would say
I'm afraid of the life that I've made, I've made

But all this driving
Is driving me crazy
And all this moving
Is proving to get the best of me
And I've been trying to hide it
But lately
Every time I think I'm better
Pickin' my head up, getting nowhere

Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night

I've been lyin' to them all
I don't need it anymore
Don't you worry about me
I'll be fine if I can breathe
I've been hidin' for too long
Taking shit for how I'm wrong
How I'm wrong
Always wrong

Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night

Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Take me back to the basics and the simple life)
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease)
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night




(Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby)
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Troye Sivan's "EASE" portrays vulnerability and a desire for comfort and simplicity. The first verse mentions the singer losing weight and feeling isolated, with their mother checking up on them frequently. They express their fear and anxiety with metaphors such as "the stars are falling" and "the wolves are out calling." The chorus repeats the desire for a simpler life and the comfort of a loved one's touch and presence to provide peace of mind. The second verse shows a slight improvement in their mental state as their baby listens to them on the phone, but they still feel alone and lost.


The bridge shows the singer admitting their struggles to themselves and no longer feeling the need to pretend that everything is okay. They express a desire to breathe and escape the expectations and criticisms of others.

Iā€™m down to my bed and I
canā€™t stop watching Troyeā€™s videos
and listening his music - which I love
Well the truth is that he is famous now
and the big world is c-calling our
very lovely, little, little, Troye

But all this hiding
is driving me crazy
Canā€™t you see
that Tronnor
ship is sailing
Iā€™ve been trying to pray it
but lately
Iā€™ve noticed that they have decided not to collaborate

Take me back to the basics and his old videos
Remember when Troye was vlogging in his bedroom?
His wink, his jokes, his #asktroyes
I still watch them
I still love them
I miss them a lot
miss them a lot

And my mommy, she can't put down the phone
And stop asking how I'm doing all alone, alone
But the truth is the stars are falling, ma
And the wolves are out c-calling, ma
And my home has never felt this far

But all this driving, is driving me crazy
And all this moving is proving to get the best of me
And I've been trying to hide it but lately
Every time I think I'm better pick my head up
Getting nowhere

Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Holding on tight and sleeping at night
Holding on tight and sleeping at night

Now I'm down to my skin and bones
And my baby listens to me on the phone
But I can't help feeling like I'm all alone, all alone
The truth is, the stars are falling, babe
And I'd never ever thought that I would say I'm afraid of the life that I have made, I have made

But all this driving, is driving me crazy
And all this moving is proving to get the best of me
And I've been trying to hide it but lately
Every time I think I'm better pick my head up
Getting nowhere

Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Holding on tight and sleeping at night
Holding on tight and sleeping at night
I've been lying to them all I don't need it anymore
Don't you worry about me I'll be fine if I can breathe
I've been out here for too long taking shit for how I'm wrong
How I'm wrong, always wrong

Take me back to the basics and the simple life
Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease
Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Take me back to the basics and the simple life)
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease)
Holdin' on tight and sleepin' at night
(Your touch, my comfort, and my lullaby)
