5 Seconds Of Summer – Easier lyrics
[Intro: Luke]
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don't wanna know, oh
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know you don't want it any other way

[Verse 1: Luke]
Why do we always gotta run away?
And we wind up in the same place
It's like we're looking for the same thing
Same thing, yeah
Yeah, do we really gotta do this now?
Right here with all your friends around
In the morning, we can work it out
Work it out

[Pre-Chorus: Luke, with All]
I love you so much that I hate you
Right now, it's so hard to blame you
'Cause you're so damn beautiful
You're so damn beautiful

[Chorus: Luke, with All]
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don't wanna know, oh
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know that you're always gonna stay the same
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don't wanna know, oh
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know you don't want it any other way

[Verse 2: Luke]
Every time that you say you're gonna leave
That's when you get the very best of me
You know we need it like the air we breathe
Air we breathe, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Luke, with All]
I love you so much that I hate you (Oh)
Right now, it's so hard to blame you (Oh)
'Cause you're so damn beautiful (Oh)
You're so damn beautiful (Oh)

[Chorus: Luke, with All]
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don't wanna know, oh
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know that you're always gonna stay the same
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don't wanna know, oh (I don't wanna know)
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know you don't want it any other way

[Bridge: Luke]
The hardest part of all (Da-da-da-dum-da-da)
Is that we're only built to fall (Is it easier?)

[Chorus: Luke, with All]
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go?
I don't wanna know, oh (Oh)
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know that you're always gonna stay the same (Is it easier?)
Is it easier to stay? Is it easier to go? (Yeah)
I don't wanna know, oh (Oh)
But I know that I'm never, ever gonna change
And you know you don't want it any other way

[Outro: All & Luke]
I love you so much that I hate you (Hate you)
Right now, it's so hard to blame you
'Cause you're so damn beautiful

    This track is based on a tumultuous romance the singer is engaged in. However, unlike other songs with a similar foundation, “Easier” takes a different approach. For instance, it does not seem as if any of the participants in this relationship are going anywhere. In fact the song suggests that they actually enjoy the conflicts which are part and parcel of their union. Or perhaps more specifically they love each other as they are despite the fact that they are constantly at each other’s throats.

    Moreover the singer does not express a desire to transform himself, i.e. be kinder to his partner. Rather he states that he is “never ever going to change” in addition to her likelihood of “stay(ing) the same”.

    Owing to the above, it is safe to say this song is not based on a call for the lovers to alter their personalities in the name of preventing conflict, although it is clear the singer is tired of fighting. Rather it has him debating whether it is “easier to stay” or “to go”. Or put differently, which is the ideal route – to terminate the relationship or to keep it ongoing? Yet despite making this inquiry which is central to the theme of the song, he has already concluded that he “doesn’t want to know”. In other words, even though the two of them go at it regularly and even publicly, he really has no desire for their relationship to end.
