Like a broken clock gives the right time, 2 times a day

When we make our lives complicated but happiness finds itself it the simple things
The mood is down, yeah
I close my eyes and look around with my ears

For how long have we been fleeing ? For how long have we been running ?
For how long have we been lying ? For how long have we been suffering ?

But happiness finds its way in simple things (happiness is in simple things)

Because if God gave me everything I wanted, I would use it the wrong way
Simple things, Amen
