Easier (Alternate Version) Lyrics

Lord knows it happens all the time
Lord knows it happens all the time
I've lost my head in my wandering
My voice is dead; I'm too tired to think
This through, this through, this through, this through

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Easier (Alternate Version) lyrics by Grizzly Bear

This is the more acoustic version that Grizzly Bear has released as a free MP3. They have also played it live. You can find the MP3 and videos of those performances all over the internet. It's definitely a different take on the original, but both are very well done.

Note: Since there are no official lyrics for this version of the song, I'm not sure if the last word of the second line above should be "wandering" or "wondering." I went with "wandering" because of how Daniel pronounces it in the MP3, but it's a close call where either would fit.

Whoops, make that the third line above. Anyone know for sure what the lyric should be?
