Relatively Easy Jason Isbell

Are you having a long day?
Everyone you meet rubs you the wrong way
Dirty city streets smell like an ashtray
Morning bells are ringing in your ear

Is your brother on a church kick?
Seems like just a different kind of dope sick
Better off to teach a dog a card trick
Than try to have a point and make it clear

You should know
Compared to people on a global scale
Our kind has had it relatively easy

And here with you
There's always something to look forward to
My angry heart beats relatively easy

I lost a good friend
Christmastime when folks go off the deep end
His woman took the kids and he took Klonopin
Enough to kill a man of twice his size

Not for me to understand
Remember him when he was still a proud man?
A vandal's smile, a baseball in his right hand
Nothing but the blue sky in his eye
