about
The Lost Ark Studio presents "It Used To Be Easy" by Tyson Motsenbocker, the latest single from the Lost Ark Studio Compilation - Vol. 07. Tyson got in touch with us awhile back, we were so impressed by his past work that we invited him in to do a single for the compilation series, so glad we did. A great day in the studio, a beautiful song... Enjoy.
Tyson Motsenbocker would be the first person to tell you that he is a lyricist first and a musician second, but the true talent in the San Diego based singer songwriter is his ability to marry the two. Spinning stories of love and loss, beauty and wonder and often, man’s turmoil with relationship with the creator above the perfect soundtrack to evoke each image. Motsenbocker’s two EP’s “Until it Lands” and “Rivers and Roads” only suggest at what is to come for this young artist.
lyrics
It Used To Be Easy - Tyson Motsenbocker
I bought you flowers
Or at least I know I tried
As I rattled on the glass doors
And called to those inside, of the grocery stores in all of North
Los Angeles one night
When my words weren’t coming out right
And I wonder were you waiting
For me to come again
And tell you I was sorry for all that had been broken
But as I left the cigarettes were burning, over you
Cause I didn’t know what else to do
But if I was a fool
To fall over you, I remember
That it used to be easy
It used to be easy and it used to be fast
It used to be beautiful, until you looked away
Then it used to be hard
It used to be hard
They took down that sign beside the house
You always liked
When we were happy dreaming
Caught in branches at the seaside
Well I walk by
From time to time, inside I swear its you
Looking comfortable and confused
But if I was a fool
To fall over you, I remember
That it used to be easy
It used to be easy and it used to be fast
It used to be beautiful, until you looked away
Then it used to be hard
It used to be hard
