"leaving is easy" by almost monday

“leaving is easy” marks a defining moment for almost monday. Written early last year with Chase Lawrence (COIN) the song was initially set aside - unfinished, unresolved. In the wake of a deeply personal loss for the band at the end of the year, they returned to it during their grieving and healing process. Now complete, “leaving is easy” captures the tension between holding on and letting go – the quiet devastation of loss paired with the determination to keep going. It’s a song that now carries more weight than music for the band.
