lyrics
~ "i'm just a simple man, looking for my girl"
said you a simple man, huh?
well, I’m a complicated girl
and it’s a complicated world
and simplicity isn’t a
compliment to me bcos I am not a simple girl
and reality is
something i’d rather be in than compromise
my radical
perspective of your paradise, where i’m paralysed
as the
mother of your children, the obedient wife
giving up all of my
ambition for a“perfect life”
didn’t your mama tell you that love only comes with pain?
that love is just a distraction like some falling rain
i’m afraid that love will kill me like abel from cain
and leave me nothing but scars and a couple of stains
if
you’re so simple, go ahead and simplify my range, my pain, my
trauma, and drama
and glorify your masculinity when you get
some good karma
then run home and complain about your day to
your mama
if you a real man then you would love a real woman
now,
ain’t that real simple? but most of you couldn’t
most of you
fall for the scam where simplicity’s your plan
with the
audacity to stand by what you misunderstand
mister simple man,
don’t try to run when you can’t walk
the talk that you knock
on these doors that we keep locked
cos our world is full of
scary things and you could be one of them
and i’m not risking
my wings for someone who can’t carry them
let’s face it, you’ve been lied to your entire life,
and
the truth can be so hard so i apologise
but i’ve already been
empathetic, almost all the time,
that i’ve destroyed a part of
myself that cannot be revived
and love isn’t an equation, it
cannot be simplified
it isn’t a game of chess it cannot be
strategised
it needs attention, support and a whole lot of
patience and time
it needs for you to just open your eyes
i know i said i wanted to be loved, but not like this
not with pushes and shoves, or obsessive bliss
not with
the fear of rejecting then settling for less
but with
gentleness and grace and mutual respect
that i am my own
person, i’m not a thing you can perfect
and i don’t need to
bear your children to earn your respect
while you dream about
the life you see on the internet
and it damn well isn’t my
responsibility to shape your intellect
cos if you are such a simple man, it must be safe for me to
assume
that you just aren’t smart enough for the world that we
consume
that you confuse abuse and manipulation with telling
truths and
you trust the first person that tells you all the
fake news
and i guess your version is always the one you’re
gonna choose
simple narcissism keeping you stuck in your own
shoes
if you’re still a simple man looking for a “simple”
girl,
i’m afraid to disappoint you but they’re not in this
world
