Simple

from Paper Wires by Matt Honkonen

lyrics

The world has changed
and we're left standing with
Pieces we would hide
Hunting for the sounds outside the
window, with nothing to find

Pink and naked
our ideas stumble
un-conformed in the womb
breaking through they fall into the
ocean, and float down to you

one heals one kills yet two will die
the steel will crack the blood will rise
the ship still sailing with the crowd
in hopes that grace is bound
to such a simple sound

Pink and naked
our ideas stumble
un-conformed in the womb
breaking through they crash into the
ocean, and float down to you

winter's chill is
cold and lucid
it calls me to hear
these sounds outside these walls
that, remain in my ear

one heals one kills yet two will die
the steel will crack the blood will rise
the ship still sailing with the crowd
in hopes that grace is bound
to such a simple sound
