Simple Man lyrics

I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again In an endless cycle of joy and pain Inside one day your whole life can change innocence torn away Trust gives way to a thicker skin A shield from pain? or a trap that keeps it all in. They tried to break me down - I had to break away I woke up from that night mare to start another day I wanna be a simple man with a little peace of mind Live a simple life, in a place that's kind I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again. No poetry, No symmetry, nothing left inside of me What happened to that feeling of invincibility? Broken up caught under the load Broken down by the side of the road They tried to break me down I had to break away I woke up from that nightmare to start another day....
