Hear me now
Mark my words
Sometimes living just takes some courage
When the sky is falling and the talking heads
Say: To sell some omelets gotta break some eggs

Got half a lung and two left shoes
A bulletproof vest and some breaking news
And I'm a blue collar criminal
If I forget my rent is due

Yesterday wouldn't believe me
Tomorrow may never come easy

Take me back
To a simpler time
Nothing but sunshine on my mind
Cause I've been going crazy
Wish someone would
Take me back
To a simpler time
Trouble had a backseat in my life
Cause I'm not thinking straightly
Wish someone would take me back

I'm all alone
I'm freaking out
I grab my phone and it calms me down
Scroll past, the cats and the foreign press
And then I fill my mind with too much sex

I got half a life
Left to live
Without a world war or any viruses
I'd like to try to buy a house before the ice melts and the tide comes crashing in

Yesterday wouldn't believe me
Tomorrow may never come easy

Take me back
To a simpler time
Nothing but sunshine on my mind
Cause I've been going crazy
Wish someone would
Take me back
To a simpler time
Trouble had a backseat in my life
Cause I'm not thinking straightly
Wish someone would take me back

Wish I could rewind
Leave the future far behind me
Wish I could rewind
Leave the future far behind me

Take me back
To a simpler time
Nothing but sunshine on my mind
Cause I've been going crazy
Wish someone would
Take me back
To a simpler time
Trouble had a backseat in my life
Cause I'm not thinking straightly
Wish someone would take me back
