Simple Song of Sin - Peter Bjorn & John

Light is fadin'

Winter is callin'

Summer is fallin' down

Autumn shape my senses sharp

That kind of feelin'

All of the people

All of this painful now

And it’s makin' this so hard

What if the song I’m singin',

Just pretends?

Wrapped around the finger

Of contempt

But I’m gonna change my tune

The shtick is wearin' thin

It’s my voice

and dig it, just noise

A simple song of sin

All the baseline

Leads to a lifetime

Looks will enhance

Struggles in the present tense

Eyes wide open

All that you see can be hard

To carry it through

Into imagination

Shadows growin' taller

Every night

Self-affliction smaller

But I’m gonna drop the clue

The shtick is wearin' thin

It’s my voice

and dig it, just noise

A simple song of sin

When you’re restless and easily upset

It’s hard to forget to remember to forget

What if the song you’re singin'

Just pretends?

It’s not even beginning

And it never ends

But I’m gonna change my tune

The shtick is wearin' thin

It’s my voice

and dig it, just noise

A simple song of sin

But I’m gonna drop the clue

The shtick is wearin' thin

It’s my voice

and dig it, just noise

A simple song of sin

But I’m gonna drop the clue
