lyrics

The old piano with the broken keys
Plays out of tune but it works for me
See I don't need a symphony for a simple song
And I try to stay up in a world of down
And keep searching for life in this ghost town
Holding onto hope it will be found, eventually

So don't get hypnotized by someone else's schemes
It will steal away your time, and tarnish all your dreams

Oh I loved my dog more than I loved myself
Yet he still loved me more than I loved him
And he opened my eyes in a way they had never been
And everyday things seem to fade and go
Some you know you'll miss but others you won't know
Til you've had time to reflect and see they left a lot of little holes

So don't get mesmerized by lies that seduce
For underneath this complex life there's a simple truth

(chorus)
And then you wonder, when it was you lost your youth
It's when the wonder, died inside of you
And you claim to long for the simple life but that seems far from true
'Cause everything has been complicated and we demand complicated truths
And now it seems like even love is too simple for you

But you're so desperate and drowning with regrets
You can't see the connect between what you give and and what you get
