simplicity.

it would be nice if it were really as simple as it sounds.

it's like how some people live like they don't need food,
when they know they can't possibly live without food.

it's like how industrialized nations live like they don't need air,
when they know they can't possibly live without air.

it's like how the broken-hearted live like they don't need love,
when they know they can't possibly live without love.

just because we act like we don't need something,
doesn't mean we don't.

it takes some waking up,
a kick in the butt,
a slap in the face,
a pinch in the arm,
a step on the foot.

but just because we live like we don't need God,
doesn't mean we don't.

simple things are harder to grasp.

it's like how i can do algebra,
but can't add and subtract very well.

simple things,
simple things.
