It's Good, It's Simple
Simple Love's Imperfections
Lyrics
Don't ask me why I want you
Expressing uncertainty about the reason for wanting the person.
I couldn't answer that
Unable to provide a definite answer to the question.
Maybe it's because I'm made of memories and fat
Suggesting a connection between the desire for the person and a mix of memories and physical attributes.
Everyone here wants you
Noticing that others desire the person as well.
But they don't brush your teeth
Highlighting the superficial interest of others by contrasting it with neglecting oral hygiene.
Their good for a night but then they run to the next fed
Commenting on short-term interests of others and their tendency to move on quickly.
Your love is good, it's simple
Affirming that the love in question is good and simple.
This love, is good it's simple
Reiterating the simplicity and goodness of the mentioned love.
I know you ain't perfect
Acknowledging imperfections in the person being addressed.
Your certainly a drunk
Pointing out a specific flaw, which is being a drunk.
Your certainly avoidant and your puncturing your lung
Highlighting another flaw, being avoidant and causing self-harm.
But I'm no angel either
Admitting personal imperfections, possibly in comparison to the addressed person.
I've got demons on my back
Acknowledging personal struggles represented by metaphorical demons.
I've got things I can't remember and I'm citing them as fact
Suggesting unreliable memories and the tendency to present them as facts.
Your love is good, it's simple
Reaffirming the goodness and simplicity of the mentioned love.
This love, is good it's simple
Restating the positive qualities of the love.
La da da da da da da da da

-I'll be here when your old
Committing to being present in the future, particularly during old age.
laughing at your teeth
Imagining a humorous scenario of aging, laughing at the person's teeth.
