Simple

Momma says she don't want me to go
Daddy said, "Don't sell your soul"
Manny called, "There's a party tonight"
Said, "It won't last long, have the time of your life"
And the Devil's got a house in the hills
Haunted house full of thrills

Long way from the East Coast, my home
How'd I get so numb, so cold
Living with the life that I chose

I took an elevator to the top
Didn't tell me that my heart would break
Took you further than you ever thought
Keep you longer than you wanna stay
The plane won't stop 'cause it's a fast ride
First class seats in the high life
Hard life, Mom's right, it was simple
Wanna go back when life was simple

Had to ghost my best friend the other day
Couldn't hang out 'cause I was out to lunch with fame
Another day in the land of the free and the home of the fake
Now I got a key to the Devil's haunted house in the hills
(I don't wanna go in)

Long way from the East Coast, my home
How'd I get so numb, so cold
Living with the life that I chose

I took an elevator to the top
Didn't tell me that my heart would break
Took you further than you ever thought
Keep you longer than you wanna stay
The plane won't stop 'cause it's a fast ride
First class seats in the high life
Hard life, Mom's right, it was simple
Wanna go back when life was simple

Oh, oh, when did I lose myself? I lost myself
Oh, it's my fault, no one else
Did this myself (myself)
Oh, just wanted to feel something real

Took an elevator to the top
Took me further than I ever thought
The plane won't stop 'cause it's a fast ride
First class seats in the high life
Time is something that you can't buy
And I've been wasting mine
Hard life, Mom's right, it was simple
Wanna go back when life was simple
