This Simple Thing Jeff Berglund

My lips feel tight as a hangman’s noose
Like a stubborn knot that I can’t work loose
Sometimes I come up short on words
So you don't hear what I know you deserve

This simple thing is too hard to say
No matter how true, I guess I ain’t that brave
The shortest path is the steepest way
This simple thing is too hard to say

You were born with a silver tongue
But I have to deal with this wooden one
Thoughts get lost so deep in my head
Or catch in my throat and never get said

This simple thing is too hard to say
No matter how true, I guess I ain’t that brave
The shortest path is the steepest way
This simple thing is too hard to say

The shortest path is the steepest way
This simple thing is too hard to say
