Easy Fix
k.flay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell you that I'm looking for an easy fix
Watch my mouth stuttering
Whiskey sprite is a decent mix
Try to get my guts to spin
Couple cheap thrills yeah I'm needing it
I don't think I get enough of them
What I did last night don't speak of it
Fucked up yeah I must have been

See it my face, see it in my blood
Memories erased, turn it all to fuzz
Take a photo now while I'm in a pose
Can't remember how, that's the way it goes
Ripping up the pages I rifled though
Know you loved the taste yeah I like it too
Hole inside my chest and it's hard to fill
Consciousness too hard to kill

I don't know if you got a way but I do
I keep my eyes glazed and my mind blank
I don't know if you got a away but I do
I keep my eyes glazed and my mind blank

Had a long night with a friend of mine
Messed up I'm late to work
Everything's wrong try to set it right
But can't seem to get my legs to work
Do it all again like anytime
Oh you just say the word
Got to be my best tonight
Shot the dark, not guessing right
Start again, make it hurt

See it my face, see it in my blood
Memories erased, turn it all to fuzz
Take a photo now while I'm in a pose
Can't remember how, that's the way it goes
Ripping up the pages I rifled though
Know you loved the taste yeah I like it too
Hole inside my chest and it's hard to fill
Consciousness too hard to kill

Take a piece of my heart, tear it off
Let it all fall apart
You can hit me harder than that
Watch it come back around
Did you know silence is, is a sound
I can take it farther than that

At the click of a gun
At a turn of the knife
Said I'd do it just once
Now it's happening twice
Sitting somewhere beneath
See it under the ground




Give it up to the deep
I didn't utter a sound

Overall Meaning

K.Flay's song "Easy Fix" depicts the singer's struggles with addiction and the consequences that come with it. The lyrics reveal her reliance on substances like whiskey and cheap thrill to avoid facing the painful parts of her life. K.Flay states that she has a hard time recalling what happened the night before, and she takes a moment to suggest that she might be covering up for doing something wrong.


Furthermore, the chorus is the same throughout the song, with K.Flay dealing with the consequences of her addiction emotionally and physically. She acknowledges that she needs help but also admits to having ways to cope with her problems. Her addiction is the easy fix to avoid facing the reality of her situation, which she believes is too hard to deal with.


The latter half of the song tackles the more challenging aspects of K.Flay's addiction. She's in denial about the depth of her struggles and the extent of the damages from substance abuse. She sings about ripping pages she used to flip through, signifying the destruction of her past, and coming to terms with her addiction. She says that her consciousness is too hard to kill, indicating that her mental state and her substance abuse are inextricably linked. In the last few lines, K.Flay suggests that she has hit rock bottom, and her addiction is tearing her apart, and she is no longer taking responsibility for what is occurring.

I love K Flay and all of her new music. Ive loved watching her grow as an artist but honestly these older grungier but very lyrical songs hit so close to home every line, such a unique artist

Lunabyes

@Alice Mirga No problem! I wish she'd come to where I live, but I live in the middle of buttfuck nowhere New Zealand lol! I've personally been listening to her since I was almost 11, and I'm 22 now! Glad to see other long term fans returning <3 <3 Hope you're able to see her live!
