I Know It S Not Easy lyrics

Call me when you think the coast is clear
I`ve been hiding out almost a year
Is there something wrong?
What`s taking you so long?
And yeah, I know it`s not easy

You said if I waited it`d pay off
But my eyes are growing wild and my body`s gone soft
Is there something wrong?
What`s taking you so long?
And yeah, I know it`s not easy

You said I should let go of your hand
But I don`t even know if I can
You`re the only one
You are the very sun to me
And you know it`s not easy

You`d tell me, wouldn`t you, if we needed to talk?
And you`d tell me, wouldn`t you, if I`d pissed you off?
Is there something wrong?
What`s taking you so long?
And yeah, I know it`s not easy

Well, I look at the stars and I know you`re under them
I look at the cars and I know you insure them
I look at the books and things people are reading
I know that you`ve written them, too
You`ve got so many little things to do
But then I look at my life and I know you`ve forgotten
The promise you made to me
I think that`s rotten
I`m hopelessly lost and there`s hardly a sound anymore
Coming through that can show me around
`Cause I`m endlessly, endlessly searching the crowd
Looking for something from you
Just one fucking measly clue
Any shitty little tip-off would do
But I`m just an ant in Alaska to you

Then I look at the stars and I know you`re under them
I look at the cars and I know you insure them
I look at the books and the things people are reading
I know that you`ve written them, too
You`ve got so many little things to do
But then I look at my life and I know you`ve forgotten
The promise you made to me
I think that`s rotten
I`m hopelessly lost and there`s hardly a sound anymore
Coming through that could show me around
`Cause I`m endlessly, endlessly searching the crowd
Looking for something from you
Just one fucking measly clue
Any shitty little tip-off would do
But I`m just and ant in Alaska to you
I`m just an ant in Alaska
An ant in Alaska
An ant in Alaska to you
