Simple
Akina Eman Lyrics

In the first paragraph, the lyrics describe a moment of reflection while watching the sunset. The singer reminisces about a past conversation with someone that evoked strong emotions, but also expresses regret for ever having had that conversation. The passage suggests that time is passing and the singer is unsure about their own emotions and where their thoughts are currently focused. The final line hints at a conflicted desire for the person they were talking to not to return.

In the second paragraph, the lyrics delve into a specific memory that took place around 2 am in December. It seems to be a moment of intimacy shared with someone, causing a physical reaction of shivers. However, it is revealed that after that moment, the person avoided the singer and even lied to them. The phrase "Cried wolf" implies that the person made false claims or made the situation seem worse than it actually was. The lyrics end with a resigned line that suggests acceptance of this as a part of life's experiences.

The third paragraph highlights the phrase "No love lost, just lessons learned," indicating that despite the disappointments and difficulties experienced, the singer has gained valuable lessons and is determined to move forward without repeating the same patterns. The lyrics suggest that if the singer trusted their own heart more than the opinions and actions of others, life would be simpler and less complicated.

The final paragraph reflects on the dynamic between the singer and the person they were involved with. The lyrics state that the person had the ability to bring calmness to the singer's turbulent emotions but ultimately was not meant to be. It is implied that the person struggled with intensity, potentially suggesting that they were not able to handle the depth of emotions or commitment. The lyrics then express contentment in moving on and finding happiness, both for themselves and for the person they were involved with. The repeated chorus reinforces the idea that trusting one's own heart and instincts would simplify matters and make moving on easier.
