Can This Be My Simple Life

My life is so simple No blood on my hands I walk the straight and narrow Something is offhand I travel the road of complication Never to be heard I sweat the ugly nature , coming within my age My early recollections carve out my frame Can I be some enigma ,dancing to a tune My soul is so reverent that even I think of myself as a buffoon Oh please help me when I'm stranded sitting at the curb I wish that I was so adept that even I could make the turn Jesus was a savior,or so they say Where is he when you need him ,even with his sway God I want your magic give it to me in spades Return me to nature that is one wish i pray I just want a simple life even if its just one day
