Simple Days
[Chorus]
Can I go back to the simple days
Where I wasn't stuck in this maze
That I call life, or am I lost?
If I give up, then what's the cost?
[Verse 1]
When I was younger, life was easy
Now I'm yearning that the days be cheesy
A happy ending is all I really ask for
But I just have problems, and a little more
Regret ever opening the door
To all the enemies that stained the carpet
Now every welcome is a burden
Why write the chaptеr when I can burn it?
Can I go back to the simple days
Whеre I didn't have a plate of mistakes
Or is it too late to turn back the page?
It's hard to accept the things I've done
It won't work, but I can't help but run
I have no right to see the sun
Just lock me in for the rest of my days
Hoping this just another phase
And that maybe one day, I'll feel like a kid
Without the worries of the world breathing down my neck
Nightmares convincing me that my life's a wreck
Like the darkness will push me off my deck
I'm done with this meal, now I want my check
It's hard to swallow the truths of today
Sometimes I just wanna sleep this away
How about I make a sad song for you to play?
[Pre-Chorus]
Fallen so far from the start
I love this life with an empty heart
Life's a play, I'll play my part
Do I know who I am?
If I fall from grace, do I have a plan?
[Chorus]
Can I go back to the simple days
Where I wasn't stuck in this maze
That I call life, or am I lost?
If I give up, then what's the cost?
[Verse 2]
So many things that I wanna undo
It's never that easy, but I wish it was
Bullets flying, I can feel the claws
Loneliness when I open my eyes
Close my eyes, fear my demise
Back when I was young, I was carefree
I'd make sand castles by the sea
Or l'd laugh at a fart joke on TV
But now I worry about where I'll go
If I can make it through this bitter snow
Is life too fast, or am I too slow?
Maybe I should try and catch up with the rest
Life will never be that easy, but I'll try my best
Cuz sulking all day won't do a thing
I'll get nowhere if all I do is sing
About the sorrows that have befallen me
I gotta work on the best version of me
And maybe the days won't be so tough
Maybe I'll have a reason to rise and shine
Maybe I'll have a reason to hold the whines
Maybe I'll find the love that I've been yearning for
Cuz I know It's important to win the war
So I won't have to leave my babe for a fight
And they won't have to worry about me blacking out
[Pre-Chorus]
Fallen so far from the start
I love this life with an empty heart
Life's a play, I'll play my part
Do I know who I am?
If I fall from grace, do I have a plan?
[Chorus]
Can I go back to the simple days
Where I wasn't stuck in this maze
That I call life, or am I lost?
If I give up, then what's the cost?
