Pull out your heart to make the
Being alone
Easy, easy
Pull out your heart to make the
Being alone
Easy, easy
You switch the screens over the
Rest of you fools
Easy, oh easy
They poke around until they
Get what they want
Easy, oh easy
Oh, easy, easy
Throw the lunch you pay for
Out of sight when it's
Easy, oh easy
Throw the lunch you pay for
Oh easy, easy
Easy, easy
Pull out the heart that keeps you
Feeling alone
Easy, easy
Pull out your heart to make the
Being alone

The lyrics of "Easy" by Son Lux ft. Lorde convey the idea of disconnecting from people and becoming self-sufficient in order to make being alone “easy.” In the first verse, the singer suggests that one should remove their heart (emotion) in order to feel no pain or suffering when alone. They also imply that people are “fools” for connecting with others, perhaps arguing that it’s easier to be alone rather than dealing with the complexities of relationships. The second verse mentions the ease of manipulation that comes with being disconnected from people, implying that if others are poking around in your life, it’s because you’ve given them the opportunity to do so. The third verse highlights a simple, yet profound act of defiance against society's expectations - throwing out lunch that has been paid for, in order to feel a sense of independence.
Overall, the song speaks to the internal struggles of human connections and the difficulty of balancing them with the need for independence. The lyrics suggest a theme of resisting societal norms and valuing personal freedom over the desire for intimacy, suggesting that such a way of thinking could make being truly alone "easy."
