'Plain and Simple Me' was a song I started writing when I was in the middle of my writers block, and is really describing my feelings during that. I wrote it when I wasn't at all confident I could write, but now I felt confident enough to finish the song. enjoy...

Plain and Simple Me

(intro)

Sometimes my mind makes no sense to me
I don't know why but I cry
Occasionally

World crumbles all around me
I stand up and direct the traffic

(filler)

You know deep down inside
I can't put up with this any longer
I hate this gloomy weather
It always gets me down

I don't know why I feel this way
But I don't want it to go away
No, don't go away...
No, don't go away...

(build up)

(phone voice)

I sit there on my own
I sit there all alone
Fear building up inside of me
I need to find the way again
I need to find the path ahead
I don't know where it is
I don't know where it's going

(kick)

(chorus)

I know the sun has come out
But i'm still sitting behind a cloud
Mind empty
Head devoid of any creativity
I know I should be doing something
But I can't remember what that could be...
People told me I used to be special
But now I realise
It's just plain and simple me...

(quiet solo)

Whoa...
Why doesn't anyone let me be
Why won't you just let me be
Plain and simple me

Yeah, eeh...

Ooh why do you bother me
Ooooh why do you frighten me
Why does the sunset laugh at me

World crumbles and I don't seem to care
World crumbles and I don't seem to mind
World crumbles and I don't see a sign

I wish I could dream today
But there's no way
I could make it stay

I wish I could dream today
But I don't believe
no, I don't believe...

Why do I dream sometimes
When I know that it'll never come true
Why do I dream sometimes
When I can look at you
Deep inside
I think you know it's true...

(build up)

(phone voice)

I sit there on my own
I sit there all alone
Fear building up inside of me
I need to find the way again
I need to find the path ahead
I don't know where it is
I don't know where it's going

(kick)

(chorus)

(filler)

(chorus again)

Plain and simple me...

(echoes)

Get used to me
How i'll be
When i'm plain and simple me
Simple me...

(echoes)

(end)
