Declan Galbraith - Simple Man

This weight i carry
The burden i bear
Lies so heavy on my back
Shackles around my neck.

I am the simple man
with a cluttered soul Tarnished mind x2

But i want to be free

'Cause this is my life I wanna live it
just how i like
No one's gonna break me down
Yeah this is my life I wanna live it
No one's gonna break me down.

I look to the people and just see ghosts
Their hollowed faces and their minds
gripped to their souls.
Now free spirit
seems only a dream
A myth to keep you
Blind and quiet such a powerful thing Will there be a time you choose conscience over pride.


I am the simple man
with a cluttered soul Tarnished mind


And i want to be free

'Cause this is my life I wanna live it
just how i like
No one's gonna break me down
This is my life I wanna live it
No one's gonna break me down.

So much time gone by
And we're still dying for the same things
If not religion then it's race
Always the same.
And this storm lays heavy
like a wailing banshee on my mind
It's in my veins and it breeds flesh to my bons.

Yeah this is my life
I wanna live it
No one's gonna break me down
Yeah this is my life
I wanna live it
No one's gonna break me down.
Yeah this is my life
I wanna live it
I am the simple man
With a cluttered soul
And a tarnished mind
You're trying to break me down.
