Father left home when you turned 14
Took the best, left the rest for the simple things
The simple things come easy when youve been used
Tried every drug in the neighborhood
But nothing can change your mind about the simple things. The simple things come easy when youve been abused
Life is cheap, money's free, these are what
We call the simple things, desperate now
Gun to your mouth, is death worse than life when you live for the simple things?
The simple things come easy when youve no choice
It smells outside from the atomic tide
And you have no money and nowhere to hide. The simple things come easy when youve no voice
The simple things come easy, when the good things in life arent free
I will try to protect you from within myself. Let the simple things run their course
I can't trust my family and friends. Its all around, they all want the simple things
The simple things come easy, if you believe. I'll draw my lines, choose my defense
When it all comes down theyll kill for the simple things
The simple things come easy if you concede
