As Thoreau once said…
Simplify , Simplify…
Henry David Thoreau, in his book Walden, famously advocated for a life of simplicity, famously stating, "Simplify, simplify." He believed that people were frittering away their lives on unnecessary details and complexities, and that by simplifying, one could find true fulfillment and meaning.
A log cabin crouched near the water's edge
The lake whispers soft like a poet's pledge
The fiddle moans low like the trees in the breeze
This is the life
Just dirt
Sky
And ease
[Chorus]
Simplify simplify
Let it all go
Trade the rush for the hush of the cicadas' glow
Simplify simplify
Hear the world hum
In the crackle of the fire and the beat of the drum
[Verse 2]
Accordion sighs like the wind through the pines
A patchwork of stars
No city confines
The sun dips down
Painting gold on the shore
This life is enough
I don't need any more
[Prechorus]
No clocks
No chains
No neon
No race
Just the lake
The land
And the sky's embrace
[Chorus]
Simplify simplify
Let it all go
Trade the rush for the hush of the cicadas' glow
Simplify simplify
Hear the world hum
In the crackle of the fire and the beat of the drum
[Bridge]
I left the clutter
The chatter
The mess
Found peace in the stillness
A quiet success
The fiddle and accordion tell me their tune
While the moon climbs high and the night starts to croon
