lyrics

The wind is howling
On this dark and dampened night
Am I alone now
Or have I simply lost my sight

There's such a pressure
In the thick and foggy air
And if I vanished
Do you think they'd even care

It's been a year now
Since I last saw your face
Love, are you healing
Or are you still stuck on your saving grace

And is it quiet
Like you hoped that it would be
I'd die to see you
But I don't think that you miss me

Don't try to hide
I know you're not by yourself
We've both found people to move on with

This old town
Won't miss the two of us
Is it easier letting go
Is it easier letting go

And by the hearthfire
Is it comfortable and clean
You're sick of beaches
And I'm sick of feeling so empty

How is the cold there
Do you miss the springtime rain
And have you let go
Of the people who caused you pain

Don't try to hide
I know you're not by yourself
We've both found people to move on with

This old town
Won't miss the two of us
Is it easier letting go
Is it easier letting go

It must be freeing
To run away from all your faults
I don't believe it
When you say it didn't change at all

And you're not a liar
You're stronger than I'll ever know
But are you happy
Are you happy in the north

Is it easier letting go
Is it easier letting go
Is it easier letting go
Is it easier letting go
