Lyrics Easy - Stripped - MisterWives

I was holding on so tight
All of my knuckles straining white

Pins and needles in my hands
Time to let go of perfect plans

Was it all a premonition?
Saw it coming, intuition's always right
But I wanted to be wrong
Learned to soften all my edges
Tried to bend and take the lessons
I don't fight what would have happened all along

Cut me deep, but I stopped the bleeding
It gets easier, but it's not easy
I'm still standing and my heart's still beating
It gets easier, but it's not easy, ah
But it gets easier
No, it's not easy, believe me
But it gets easier

I'm getting too good at goodbyes
I'm not afraid when I'm alone
I spent a summer with no friends
I'm doing better on my own
Or better than I would be doing before
I'm not crying my eyes out on the bathroom floor
Not pointing the finger, not cursing your name
I'm not hung up on everything I could have changed

Cut me deep, but I stopped the bleeding
It gets easier, but it's not easy
I'm still standing and my heart's still beating
It gets easier, but it's not easy, ah
But it gets easier
No, it's not easy, believe me
But it gets easier

I'm not taking it hard, but I'm not taking it lightly
I was in the dark and then you struck me with lightning
Straight to the heart when you said you were leaving
It gets easier, but it's not easy
I'm not taking it hard, but I'm not taking it lightly
I was in the dark and then you struck me with lightning
Straight to the heart when you said you were leaving
It gets easier, but it's not easy

Cut me deep, but I stopped the bleeding
It gets easier, but it's not easy
I'm still standing and my heart's still beating
It gets easier, but it's not easy, oh
But it gets easier
No, it's not easy, believe me
But it gets easier
