Far From Simple

Let me tell you this in pure honesty…
I’m far from simple…a fantasy in reality frankly
I ricocheted…I danced for you, baby…
Yeah, I ricocheted…like a horse shoe maybe!

I’m a cowboy without his horse

Give it your best shot
I pray your prayers be answered
Give it the strength you got
Hope all your lines are not blurred

Things just got out of course

Sorry, I am far from simple…
I fall and crumble…
I am working on being humble…
Unlike some people…

Your simple ways isn’t my source

I’m not at all perfect, but I try
My heart races a marathon
I won’t give up till I’m done
Regretless of my complications…my complexity at large…
Simple doesn’t even define me…ah, just agree..
I can’t be constantly in competitions when you’re in charge!
Inadequate is how you view me…ah, now I see
Quitting is for the faint in heart
I’m not even going to start
I’m just a man, no need to cry

I follow my pathway through an outlandish force

Unlike some people…
I’ve become a little more rational
I stand tall like a bricked wall
Through it all…through it all…

Sick of your selfish and assumption-erupting remorse

Hope all your worries fade away!
Your efforts are not for naught
Give it your all and much more by the way
Don’t let your joys rot…just do not…

Listen…there’s a lot of future happiness to reinforce

Yeah, I ricocheted…but, I’m far from simplicity
I ricocheted…much like you did in elastically
But, in reality, who wins the war?
Is there peace and hope in store?

Maybe I’ve judged simplicity in the wrong light
To make simple choices and choose simple decisions is alright!

Just…not all the time, ya know?

That’s just putting up a guilt trip show…
Slowly ascending like the beginning of a rollercoaster...oh no!
Here comes the flow and glow of woe...

I can feel the sensations and vibrations undertow
And let the wicked wind keep up its rapid flow
No one understands...it's complicated...you're too simple to know!

You have become somewhat gullable and slow...
But, I won't be your fluttering, lingering crow 
Because the past is in the grave, so reap what you sow.

No lies -
The fickle truth 
Is far from simple 
It's a loose tooth...
With eyes

Honestly, I'm ricocheting in this ride of wondrous...
Happily ever after in reverse
Am I a gift or a curse?
Lonely, but changed my mind about being on my own bus
Bury these feelings of shame
They just unexpectedly came
Into my life of uncanny vanity 
So, so sad of the violence I see endlessly...it's killing you and me..
Yet I'm so, so glad for a future of glee galore that will set us all free

Will we be..
Completely free?
