its a simple town; with a lonely sound   there's demons in the trees   come and rescue me   its a simple town; where the face becomes a veil   where the eyes become a jail;   for the settlers minds to pale   its just a simple town   where the secrets drown   before they get around   but tonight they have been found   with the words come shatter out your mouth   you made a thundercloud come and rain on me   under a simple sky in a simple town   you made a knife of sound, cut the air for me   cut the secrets free   its a simple town, just a simple town   but that simple choked   the life right out of me   cause simple things   aren't so simple anymore   death is easy to ignore   when its numbers on a screen   and that simple town   it likes a simple war; chooses red or blue   the rest can be ignored   while the secrets wait; on tortured lips   till they're moved to sing; with the passion of a kiss   and theres the words....
