Lyrics:
Try to teach my myself to be alone but not lonely 
Who to trust, honey I am the only one for you there 
‘Cause it's a long, long drive through Wyoming 
And I'm waiting for the moment that my phone rings 
That might be ages from now 
That might be pages from now 

You've got this babe 
It wasn't your time 
You've had the love some only dream of in your life 
You know the grass is always greener 
I've seen happy people meaner 
Because love's an awful project that gets in the way 

And I just called this guy I used to see in Brooklyn 
‘Cause I was curious the direction that he's lookin’ in 
If he'll be marrying that chick who's tryna wife him 
But it doesn't matter anymore 
Yea well he answered but he was hiking in New York 
I want attention, so it wasn’t gonna work 
Wanted to get a rise out of him 
Wanted to see some life out of him 
All i got was lies out of him 

You've got this babe 
It wasn't your time 
You've had the love some only dream of in your life 
You know the grass is always greener 
I've seen happy people meaner 
Because love's an awful project that gets in the way 

i need to amend my comprehension of the order of things 
What comes first? How to make it work? Are these the only things? 
i need to find some peace within all this uncertainty 
I need to find some other meaning so I can keep my dreams 

You've got this babe 
It wasn't your time 
You've had the love some only dream of in your life 
You know the grass is always greener 
I've seen happy people meaner 
Because love's an awful project that gets in the way

Easier Love

Songs about folks, sunsets, oceans, mountains, jungles and dive bars I woke up in. Stories of feeling locked out in the rain, getting stuck in a square peg, making the mistake of dancing with the fairies and feeling like Rip Van Winkle. They are stories from an outsiders perspective, the belief in heroes, mythologies and an open highway. Indignation at injustice and the belief in a better tomorrow. Or maybe just disillusionment. 

If you’ve ever asked yourself what happened to this world and what happened to dreams maybe one of these songs is for you. If you still believe in the power of music to make you a better version of yourself then maybe one of these songs is for you. Or maybe you just wanna have a laugh and listen to some toe tappin music that makes you feel like your not the only one with a quirky perspective on the world. Maybe you just want to feel like a hero with headphones for a few minutes. Or maybe your just looking for a slob to hang out with. 

I know it sounds like a tall order but I’ll try my best.
