The Wait - Simple Life Lyrics

If I look behind will you promise me
There'll be something but black back there
If I stare into the abyss
Will things get clear

If I look to sea will your promise me
There'll be something but ships out there
With their cargo of sweet Mary Jane
That brought me here

I wanted the simple life
Beautiful kids and a loving wife
Oh just the simple life
White picket fences on the edge of a knife

You always said you believed in the bullshit line
You gotta live so hard and fast die young
Then you woke eight days later in some London home
You always said everyone that you knew
Had to live their own path
But in the end everybody knows we all die alone

Oh just the simple life
Beautiful kids and a loving wife
Oh just the simple life
White picket fences on the edge of a knife

Bring it down

Oh just the simple life
All that I wanted
Oh just the simple life
All that I wanted was to be alive

All that I wanted
All that I wanted yeah
All that I wanted
All that I wanted yeah
Alive
Alive
Alive
Alive
