Simple World

A song I wrote about simplicity and perfection, about obliviousness and awareness. It's about an ideal. It can be anything. The ideal person, principle, you name it.

Relaxed, just killing my own time

Everyone around, a smile would do just fine

Did not expect that much, oblivious and numb

Didn't think that I deserve, a resonating heart

And then a glimpse of bright, a light into my sight

I tried to catch it , it ran away from me

As I was chasing it, a part of me awoke

I saw it's brilliance, it turned me inside out

How can I go back now, after I saw too much

How can I lie to myself, hide one truth I know

It hurts inside too much, perfection can't adapt

In my boring, simple world 

Betrayed, my feelings left me alone

Pure emptiness, better than struggling alone

I miss emptiness, the thought of nothing at all

But why does it hurt so much? Why does it burn?

To let yourself be opened at last, to let yourself be born...

And then a glimpse of bright, a light into my sight

I tried to catch it , it ran away from me

As I was chasing it, a part of me awoke

I saw it's brilliance, it turned me inside out

How can I go back now, after I saw too much

How can I lie to myself, hide one truth I know

It hurts inside too much, perfection can't adapt

In my boring, simple world
