Posies Start A Life Lyrics

I don't know why,
I even try to be simple
when all I find
is everything complicated
when I left home
I found the holes in my pockets
my parents smiled
they didn't know I was frightened
tried to start a life
tried to make a point
tried to start a life
it's harder than you think
as I shoved off
I took a good look behind me
my tether gone
a greater binding awaiting
tried to start a life
tried to make a point
tried to start a life
it's harder than you think
tried to start a life
tried to make a point
tried to start a life
I thought I heard the shot
but I cannot tell
think that I can run
but I cannot tell
wish I had it made
but I cannot tell what I do not know
still I press on
into the ground I am keeping
with any luck
I hope to make an arrangement
tried to start a life
tried to make a point
tried to start a life
it's harder than you think
tried to start a life
tried to make a point
tried to start a life
it's harder than you think
tried to start a life ...
