Simple
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now she can't find herself in all the games they play
She wanted out, was all she had to say
All this time she thought it was fun but they had begun
To walk away from all the games
Ch
Why can't it be simple, simply just work it out
Count to ten, she's not like them at all
Why can't it be simple, simply just work it out
One day she won't be so small
So kind so sweet, won't get her what she needs
So be discreet and watch where all this lead
All this time she thought it was fun but they had begun
Without her there, she's pretending not to care
Ch
All this time she thought it was fun but they had begun
Without her there, she's pretending not to care
Ch
Why can't it be simple, simply just work it out
One day she won't be so small
She's not like them at all
