Deep inside these burning buildings  Voices die to be heard  Years we spent teaching a lesson  We ourselves had never learned    And if strength is born from heartbreak  Then mountains I could move  And if walls could speak I’d pray  That they would tell me what to do    If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by  Forget my name and I’ll forget it too  (Simple lives)  Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,  Are what keep me coming back to you.    No signs of life here, save the embers, the occasional flame  We know the way but can’t remember, conception to the grave  Shout confessions from the greatest heights, where no one can hear  All my fears, my insecurities are falling like tears    If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by  Forget my name and I’ll forget it too  (Simple lives)  Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,  Are what keep me coming back to you.    The drones all slave away   They’re working overtime  They serve a faceless queen   They never question why  Disciples of a god   That neither lives nor breathes  (I won’t come back!)  But we have bills to pay,   Yeah we have mouths to feed!  (I won’t come back!)  I won’t come back!    And if you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by  Forget my name and I’ll forget it too  (Simple lives)  Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,  Are what keep me coming back to you.    I'm coming back to you...
