The Simple Things

I want to go to a place that I’ve never been
I want to find any excuse I have to call my friends
I want to find the girl I love and go and hold her hand

I want to do all the simple things
The simple things
I want to do all the simple things
For you and me

Oh
Because I think
We all get wrapped up in life
And it’s so easy for us just to lose our minds
But what’s the point of living life in a way so blind
When we’ve got everything we need right in front of our eyes

Oh, I think that we all take life too serious
And we get blinded by our own experience
We let our worries turn into our weariness
We care so much about tomorrow that we’ll die on our way there

I want to go to a place that I’ve never been
But can that place be here and not heaven
At least for now cause I don’t want to die too young
Cause I’ve got way too many dreams and things that I’m still working on
I’ve got a thousand dms that I still need to respond to
And I’ve got all these problems that I’m still holding onto
And I don’t want to die before I live my life
So I’ve praying
Asking God if he could spare some time
For me
Cause I don’t want to live so carelessly
And I know that not a soul is here with me
And I know that it’s because I pushed them all away
And so I’m doing what I can to make up for my mistakes that I made
When I was a kid
But I don’t think I’m moving fast enough to make it to them
Oh I don’t wanna lose my people
I don’t wanna give in
But I feel like this is my consequence

Oh, I think that we all take life too serious
And we get blinded by our own experience
We let our worries turn into our weariness
We cared so much about tomorrow that we died on our way there

And now I’m 7 years gone from this Earth
And I just wish that I could tell my family that I worked so much for them
Because I loved them dearly
But I
Know that they can’t see that clearly cause I
Never told them that I loved them and I
Never showed up to a game
I told them that this life was more than running around playing games every single day
Oh I
Lost sight of the simple things
And what this life’s supposed to be
I never thought that I would see
My family walk away from me
I turned into someone I hate
And now I’m far away from my mistakes
But everything just ain’t that great
Because now I’m gone and I’m to blame

Oh, I think that we all take life too serious
And we get blinded by our own experience
We let our worries turn into our weariness
We care so much about tomorrow
That we died on our way there
