simply

i was a mere simple boy

when simple meant simple joy

and now being simple's

not simple anymore



life became so complicated

and at times so desperate(d)

it came to a crisis

of my head



but i was a mere simple boy

when simple meant simple joy

and new being simple's

not simple anymore



it's hard to imagine

all gone like a phantom

the quest i was on

to be me



but i was a mere simple boy

when simple meant simple joy

and now being simple's

not simple anymore



if trust were a gamble

it gave out like a sample

into a hungry mouth

cracking teeth



i was a mere simple boy

when simple meant simple joy

and now being simple's

not me.
