A Simple Answer Songtext
von Grizzly Bear

Those saints in lockstep
All crossed the wasteland
Forever gone, they′ll hum and walk along

Plod ever onward
Across some tundra
The light is long, but it's not long before it′s gone
Well, fine

And it calls you back to mind
At once, at last
Oh, goodness, mercy mine
Soldier on, but please, not so long
This time

Too young and thoughtless
To calm your memories
I know it's wrong, just give until it's gone


Some tired mantra
Calls ever onward
Shout it loud, just make it up somehow
Well, alright

And it′ll call you back to mind
At once, at last
Oh, goodness, mercy mine
Soldier on, but please, not so long
This time

Move on, let′s face
That all you trust is a cynical phrase
No time, no place
When all you hope is that everything breaks

No wrong or right (trust lies)
Just do whatever you like
No wrong or right (trust lies)
Just do whatever you like

No bliss, no light (trust lies)
Tell me it's all just a lie
You can′t scare me none
I'm still a lucky one
