So simple

They say just work hard, and you’ll go far,

Like dreams come true with a wish on a star.

They say love is easy, just find the one,

But no one told me love’s a loaded gun.

Oh wow, so simple, yeah, right,

Like climbing a mountain in the dead of the night.

Oh wow, so easy, for sure,

Like running full speed through a bolted door.

It’s so simple, just like that,

Like catching rain in a baseball cap.

It’s so easy, don’t you see?

Like swimming with sharks in the open sea.

Yeah, yeah, why didn’t I know?

Life’s a joke, but the punchline’s cold.

They say “just be yourself,” what a great plan,

‘Til they say, “not like that,” and ghost you, man.

They say “chase your dreams,” don’t let them fade,

But bills don’t care what passion you’ve made.

Oh wow, so simple, so great,

Like cooking a feast with an empty plate.

Oh wow, so easy, no doubt,

Like finding real friends in a room full of clout.

It’s so simple, just like that,

Like texting first and getting left on read.

It’s so easy, don’t you see?

Like buying a house with a dollar and a dream.

Yeah, yeah, why didn’t I know?

Life’s a joke, but the punchline’s cold.

Oh, teach me the ways, I wanna be wise,

Like waking up happy without caffeine highs.

Tell me the secret, tell me the key,

Or is it all just a scam on repeat?

It’s so simple, don’t complain,

Just smile while you drown in the pouring rain.

So easy, what a thrill,

Now watch me laugh as I roll downhill.
