For a long time I was in love
|
Not only in love, I was obsessed
|
With a friendship that no one else could touch
|
It didn't work out, I'm covered in shells
|
|
And all I wanted was the simple things
|
A simple kind of life
|
And all I needed was a simple man
|
So I could be a wife
|
|
I'm so ashamed, I've been so mean
|
I don't know how it got to this point
|
I always was the one with all the love
|
You came along, I'm hunting you down
|
|
Like a sick domestic abuser looking for a fight
|
And all I wanted was the simple things
|
A simple kind of life
|
|
If we met tomorrow for the very first time
|
Would it start all over again?
|
Would I try to make you mine?
|
|
I always thought I'd be a mom
|
Sometimes I wish for a mistake
|
The longer that I wait the more selfish that I get
|
You seem like you'd be a good dad
|
|
Now all those simple things are simply too complicated for my life
|
How'd I get so faithful to my freedom?
|
A selfish kind of life
|
When all I ever wanted was the simple things
|
A simple kind of life
|
