Verse 1 Jesus Murphy, look around Coffee’s cold, feet on the ground Bills on the table, dust in the light Trying to be decent, trying to be right Mama said, “Son, don’t lose your soul” Daddy said, “Kid, learn some control” But the road don’t come with a rulebook page Just years on the clock and miles on the age Pre-Chorus Every voice yelling what to believe Every heart got something up its sleeve Chorus How stupid easy is it all? Living life, just trying not to fall Sure there is power, sure there is pain Right and wrong pulling on the same chain In the end, when the curtains came We’re all just breathing, we’re all the same Verse 2 Jesus Murphy, turn on the news Everyone’s winning, everyone’s losing Promises made in a preacher’s tone Same old sins with a brand-new phone We build our kingdoms out of sand Shake our fists, then hold our hands Say we’re different, say we’re free Still looking for mercy to agree Pre-Chorus Every scar got a story to tell Heaven in a moment, hell in a cell Chorus How stupid easy is it all? Living life, just trying not to fall Sure there is power, sure there is pain Right and wrong running through the same vein In the end, past the pride and shame We’re all just breathing, we’re all the same Bridge Take off the crown, put down the knife We’re all amateurs at this thing called life No clean hands, no perfect plan Just a beating heart in a fragile man Break Jesus Murphy… Maybe that’s a prayer Maybe that’s a laugh in the dark When nobody’s there Chorus (soft, then rising) How stupid easy is it all? Living life, learning how to fall Yeah there is power, yeah there is pain But love’s the only thing that remains In the end, call it grace or flame We’re all just breathing We’re all the same Outro Jesus Murphy, close your eyes Another day learning how to try
