The speaker’s ex is narcissistic and manipulative. She (?) has self-esteem issues that she projects onto others who do nothing wrong and subsequently manipulates and lashes out at romantic partners.
[Verse 1]
You’ll take advantage ’til you think you’re being used
Cause without an enemy your anger gets confused
And I got stuck on a side you know I never chose
But it’s all about taking the easy way out for you, I suppose
[Verse 2]
There’s no escape for you, except in someone else
Although you’ve already disappeared within yourself
The invisible man, who’s always changing clothes
It’s all about taking the easy way out for you, I suppose
[Bridge]
While I watch you making mistakes
I wish you luck, I really do
With the problem, with the puzzle
Whatever’s left of you
[Verse 3]
I heard you found another audience to bore
A creative thinker who imagined you were more
A new body for you to push around and pose
It’s all about taking the easy way out for you, I suppose
It’s all about taking the easy way out for you, I suppose
