The Simple Life

Now and again I struggle
It's hard for a boy out there now
I see no sense in trying to be strong
When I'm overwhelmed by the feeling
That more than less, I tend to get it wrong
I look to the stars for direction
Although I know they're not there no more
They burnt out before, I did too
What do you do
So here I am and there it is
I still don't understand
Cause I should live and learn
But I'm just so busy all the time
And how I ache and yearn
To seal this with a kiss of death
Once in a blue moon it tears me apart
I can't find the end from where to start
Perhaps it don't look like much to some
But it sure as hell is real to me
When I'm the one
That now is overcome
I ought to live and learn
But I'm just so busy most my time
And how I ache and yearn
To seal this with a kiss of death
And draw a breath of simple life
I wanna draw a breath of simple life
I wanna draw a breath of simple life
Please let me get a breath of simple life
