Life Was Easier When I Only Cared About Me – Bad Suns
By
Strolling the streets in this ghost of a town And my future looking bleak, my head filled with sound, yeah As I lost signal on the train underground And my thoughts came flooding in, I started to drown, yeah
You caught me by surprise, changed my destination, oh yeah Kaleidoscopic eyes forming constellations, yeah
I had no reason to breathe Until you knocked the wind out of me I had no light I could see Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief Your ladder came down to the sea I hope the pain never ends Your love is so bittersweet Life was easier when I only cared about me When I only cared about me When I only cared about me
Missing the nights when my friends were around We start going unsteady, cruel merry-go-round, yeah Lit my own fuse, I could not blow it out I was strapped to a rocket aimed right at the ground, yeah
You caught me by surprise, changed my destination, oh yeah Kaleidoscopic eyes forming constellations, yeah
I had no reason to breathe Until you knocked the wind out of me I had no light I could see Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief Your ladder came down to the sea I hope the pain never ends Your love is so bittersweet Life was easier when I only cared about me When I only cared about me When I only cared about me Life was easier when I only cared about me
(No reason to breathe, no light I could see) (No reason to breathe, no light I could see) (No reason to breathe, I had no light I could see)
I had no reason to breathe Until you knocked the wind out of me I had no light I could see Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around in an ocean of grief Your ladder came down to the sea I hope the pain never ends Your love is so bittersweet Life was easier when I only cared about me When I only cared about me When I only cared about me Life was easier when I only cared about me When I only cared about me, oh, oh I hope the pain never ends Your love is so bittersweet Life was easier when I only cared about me
