Simple Man
I see lives crash like waves
On the shore again and again
In an endless cycle of joy and pain
It's sad, one day your whole life can change
Innocence torn away
Trust gives way to a thicker skin
A shield from the pain
Or a trap that keeps it all in
They tried to break me down
I had to break away
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
No poetry
No symmetry
Nothing left inside of me
What happened to that feeling of invincibility?
Broken up caught under the load
Broken down by the side of the road
They tried to break me down
I had to break away
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
On the shore again and again
In an endless cycle of joy and pain
It's sad, one day your whole life can change
Innocence torn away
Trust gives way to a thicker skin
A shield from the pain
Or a trap that keeps it all in
They tried to break me down
I had to break away
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
No poetry
No symmetry
Nothing left inside of me
What happened to that feeling of invincibility?
Broken up caught under the load
Broken down by the side of the road
They tried to break me down
I had to break away
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
I wanna be a simple man
With a little peace of mind
Live a simple life
In a place that's kind
