SIMPLE MAN (written and produced by Declan Galbraith) This weight I carry The burden I bear Lies so heavy on my back Shackles around my neck I am the simple man With a cluttered soul Tarnished mind I am the simple man With a cluttered soul Tarnished mind But I want to be free 'Cause this is my life I wanna live it Just how I like No one's gonna break me down Yeah this is my life I wanna live it No one's gonna break me down I look to the people And just see ghosts Their hollowed faces And their minds gripped to their souls Now free spirit Seems only a dream A myth to keep you Blind and quiet Such a powerful thing Will there be a time You choose conscience over pride I am the simple man With a cluttered soul Tarnished mind And I want to be free 'Cause this is my life And I wanna live it Just how I like No one's gonna break me down Yeah this is my life I wanna live it Yeah no one's gonna break me down So much time gone by And we're still dying for the same thingsIf not religion then it's race Always the same And this storm lays heavy Like a wailing banshee on my mind It's in my veins and it breeds flesh to my bones Yeah this is my life And I wanna live it No one's gonna break me down Yeah this is my life I wanna live it No one's gonna break me down This my life And I want to live it I am the simple man With a cluttered soul And a tarnished mind You're trying to break me down
