lyrics

When I was a young man stories sounded true
Blindly taking a stand against you and you and you
I felt control
Better stand corrected than to be confused
Hard for us to take your point of view
You held the rope
Breathe, make it up, save it up, missed intention in the eye
Can interpretations be just a simple lie?
Say how it is, play your cards, boy are you a winner
Seems to me you have outgrown - why so hard to let it go?
Help me forget my prophetic life
Not something I would’ve chosen
Head hardwired to overload
Pure, unspoiled unless heartbroken - something real
and something never there. It’s a simple lie.
When I was protected, hiding - prodigal I ruled
Aimlessly directed, I would strike at shadows one by one
Short to think and long to burn
It’s a simple lie
