Lyrics Simple Song of Sin - Peter Bjorn & John

Simple Song of Sin

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
