It's as simple as this, here it is   Couldn't spell it out more clearly   There's only today, and the freeway,   And the pain that keeps you near me      The animation, of sinking souls,   Strung along a telephone pole   It's easy to miss      You could circle the earth   The universe   We're shadowed in the same light   It's coming undone   So you run   While I'm circling the drainpipe      An invitation to just forget   Well I'm not finished yet, I got big plans      Cut off the table, hon and do the math   Washed out and faded like a photograph   And I spell out your name across the overpass   It's as simple as that      It's as simple as this   What I miss, I will carry to the last day   Deliver my spark   Through the dark   To the angels in the ashtray   Saturation of hopeless need   But as the asphalt bleeds   Curtains rise and      Someday you'll find me standing in your path   Whether deep in the background of some photograph   And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass   It's as simple as that      Simple's hard enough now anyway   Simple's hard enough now anyway      Someday you'll find me standing in your path   Somewhere deep in the background of some photograph   And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass   Someday you'll find me standing in your path   Somewhere deep in the background of some photograph   And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass   It's as simple as that   Simple's hard enough now anyway   Simple's hard enough now anyway   Simple's hard enough now anyway   Simple's hard enough now anyway
