Give me the simple things in life
There's nothing I want more
Than keeping my heart pure, mmm
Every part of me's now real
I live, I breathe, I feel
My mind is finally still
But everybody said
That everything is cool
Why don't you break the rule? (Ooh)
And everybody said
That nothing's gonna change
So you should stay the same, oh
I keep running to the things
That make me feel alive
That keep me on a high
That is why I hold you near
So maybe you will hear me
When I say a prayer
Take away the distractions
The shiny lights, that seems
Money don't bring you everything (Everything, everything)
Let me lay down in the grass
Soakin' up the sun
Just leave me 'til I'm done, ay
Everybody said
That everything is cool
Why don't you break the rule? (Yeah)
And everybody said
That nothing's gonna change
So you should stay the same, that's why
I keep running to the things
That make me feel alive
That keep me on a high
That is why I hold you near
So maybe you will hear me
When I say a prayer
I'm on the race
And then I fall
Take two steps forward
It's then I stall
I got your love
And what you do
It's not my will
It's how you move, I say
(I give up) Everything to you, ay
I keep running to the things
That make me feel alive
That keep me on a high (Running to the things)
That is why I hold you near
So maybe you will hear me
When I say a prayer (Ohh)
I keep running to the things
That make me feel alive
And keep me on a high (Keepin' me alive)
That is why I hold you near
So maybe you will hear me
When I say a prayer (Maybe you will)
Who are you living for?
Who are you living for?
Who are you living for?
