A Simple Life

Such a simple sense of decadence
We live in distress
Condense our whole way of thinking
Though our conscience ‘s a mess
It’s just a way to walk around when all is lost and unwound
Do we sit here quietly or turn it upside down !!!

We’re missing pieces
Deceased lease is on life
Do I repeat history or sit in misery
Should I just watch it wilt away
Promise to pay attention to those in vane
Is it a constant fact of morality?
Should I admit a slip of mentality?
Should I commit to those who speak in vane?
Detain my thoughts in remorse questioning who’s sane?

(2x) - Chorus

All I ever wanted was a simple life
And all I got from you was b-lown mind

Now should I stand alone and wait
All by myself I demand my space
I feel alone I’m trying to save my face
Keep it from showing signs of a descending taste
I breath in I breath out and let all my thoughts reign
I feel I’ve passed tests success I failed to gain
Should I just buckle and knuckle up everyone
Or walk away…Crack a smile for everyone
For every sum there is a formula to preach
And loneliness creeps like bullets on Normandy beach
I find a way to pass the time with rhyme
A strong foundation infiltrating my mind
The inhalation of signs has led me blindly
To find a course or path through this life of windy
Twist and Turn Twist it up and burn
Helps release my stress and compress what I have learned

Chorus

2x

Do you feel the same way?
Do you choose to turn your cheek the other way?
Do you sleep at night knowing?
That when you wake up its another fight!
Its another fight
