'Simple' is a stripped down straight forward modern rock n' roll song. Lyrically, it's about cutting all of the unnecessary bullsh** out of your life. Sonically it's a catchy, radio-based number with great dynamics and a serious punch.

Story behind the song
Life is filled with unnecessary demands. Sometimes you have to realize that you don't need to buy into what it sells you. The more stuff you own, the more your stuff owns you! Keep it simple!
Lyrics
SIMPLE
(Roush)
I know I’m over-complicated
My brain holds too much information
I need to simplify
And ease my troubled mind
Why can’t I simplify?
Cluttered with thoughts
I’m so pre-occupied
My brain is always working doubletime
Why can’t I simplify
All the bullshit in my life?
Just throw away things I’ve saved
Clean the slate and keep it
SIMPLE
It’s all I want to be
SIMPLE
It’s all I ever need
Why can’t I simplify?
Life’s complicated frustrating equations
Can all be reduced to the simple truth
Why can’t I simplify
All the bullshit in my life?
Just throw away
Things I’ve saved
Clean the slate
And keep it
SIMPLE
It’s all I want to be
SIMPLE
It’s all I ever need
Why can’t I
Ever be simple?
Simple
Simple
