Why Can't This Be Easy

So tell me, tell me, why can't this be easy?
I've heard it once, I've heard it all before
So settle down, relax yourself completely
You can't get down if you're always in control

Here out so far
It's a long way, long way back
I've never been so far before
Here out so far
It's a long way, long way back
I've never been so far before

So if you're wondering how you walk away
You bide your time and wait just like you do

Here out so far
It's a long way, long way back
I've never been so far before
Here out so far
It's a long way, long way back
I've never been so far before

So tell me, tell me, why can't this be easy?
You cry for help, but there's no one at the door
It's hard to find your way when it's too easy
With all your doubt and lack of self control
