[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Refrain]
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

[Verse 3]
I lost a good friend
Christmastime when folks go off the deep end
His woman took the kids, he took Klonopin
Enough to kill a man of twice his size

[Verse 4]
Not for me to understand
I remember him when he was still a proud man
With a vandal's smile, a baseball in his right hand
And nothing but the blue sky in his eye
[Refrain]
And still, compared to those a stone's throw away from you
Our lives have both been relatively easy
Take a year and make a break, there ain't that much at stake
The answers could be relatively easy

[Verse 5]
Watch that lucky man walk to work again
He may not have a friend left in the world
See him walking home again to sleep alone
I step into a shop, buy a postcard for a girl

[Verse 6]
And I broke the law, boys
Shooting out the windows of my loft, boys
When they picked me up, I made a big noise
I had everything to blame except my mind

[Refrain]
But I should say I keep your picture with me every day
The evenings, now, are relatively easy
And here with you, there's always something to look forward to
My angry heart beats relatively easy

[Outro]
My lonely heart beats relatively easy
[Interlude]
