Lyrics
Modest Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This is beginning, we realize
We're celebrating the modest life
A chance at your wishes, a wish for more
Everyone's waiting at an open door
A sneaking suspicion is in your eyes
This sweet indecision can leave you blind
Ashes are spilling from your cigarette
Everyone's willing to be a silhouette
I'm not waiting, I'm coming for you my love
All this waiting is taking its toll
I'm not waiting, I'm coming for you my love
All this waiting is taking its toll
They say this is living, it's just a lie
Everyone's living, but we're living lies
No premonition to justify
This intuition is what decides
I'm not waiting, I'm coming for you my love
All this waiting is taking its toll
I'm not waiting, I'm coming for you my love
All this waiting is taking its toll
