Easy To Be Hard
Lynn Kellogg Lyrics

How can people be so heartless
Why do people lack empathy and compassion for others?

How can people be so cruel
Why do people intentionally harm others?

Easy to be hard
It's simple to be cold-hearted and uncaring.

Easy to be cold
It's easy to show indifference and apathy towards others.

How can people have no feelings
How can people lack emotion and empathy for others?

How can they ignore their friends
How can someone disregard the feelings and needs of their close associates?

Easy to be proud
It's easy to boast and have an inflated sense of self-worth.

Easy to say no
It's easy to reject others' requests and ignore their needs.

Especially people who care about strangers
Even those who claim to care about the well-being of unknown people may lack empathy towards those in their immediate circles.

Who care about evil and social injustice
Those who are concerned with issues of wrongdoing and societal inequality may still struggle with empathy for individual people.

Do you only care about being proud
Is your only concern to boost your own ego and self-worth?

How about I need a friend, I need a friend
What about my needs for companionship and emotional support?

You know I'm hung up on you
You are aware that I am emotionally invested in you.

Easy to be gone
It's easy to disappear from someone's life or leave them behind.

Come on, easy to get read
It's easy to see through someone's pretenses and recognize their true intentions.

But too easy to be cold
It's too simple to become detached and indifferent towards others.

Easy to say no
It's effortless to reject and dismiss someone's needs or requests.

But too easy to say no
It's too simple to be dismissive and unsympathetic towards others.
