Little Details Lyrics - Simple Life - Mason Jennings

There's no street lamps on the road i take 

I'm not blessed with brakes 

I've got no place to be 

The things i love always get up and go 

Like they're late for a show 

Well, late they'll always be 

'cause it's the little details that derail your dreams 

As simple as it seems 

The separate little things that you should have done 

Define your life, honey, one by one 

I may be living but I'll die for an end 

With no money to spend 

There'll be no treasure to find 

'cause nothing I do ever seems to get done 

A lot of things get begun but then they slip my mind 

It's the little details that derail your dreams 

As simple as it seems 

The separate little things that you should have done 

They define your life, honey, one by one 

I've tried to run, but there ain't nowhere to run 

Tried to hide, but there ain't nowhere to hide 

I've looked for peace, honey, peace could not be found 

I've done myself wrong and put my anchor down 

And happiness, happiness is up in the hills 

You can take your dollar bills or you can leave 'em behind 

And emptiness, emptiness is up in my head 

All the books that i've read just cleaned out my mind 

It's the little details that derail your dreams 

As simple as it seems 

The separate little things that you should have done 

They define your life, honey, one by one 

I've tried to run, but there ain't nowhere to run 

Tried to hide, but there ain't nowhere to hide 

I've looked for peace, honey, peace could not be found 

I've done myself wrong and put my anchor down 

Well the truth is this: i don't care if i belong 

When there's all these stupid songs are on the radio
