Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From atoms up to comets
Life is never promised
You could make me wanna lie and be dishonest
[Verse 2]
The simple things, they mean much
Just stay a while, be in touch
I'm clocking out at 8:00
Let's get tacos and a red punch
[Verse 3]
But you got your eyes down
You say you're gonna leave
Gotta clean house
Just another rinse repeat
On life, and love
Life, and love
[Verse 4]
I really miss the feeling
The confidence in silence
The simple things, they mean much
It's never been a science
[Verse 5]
So you gotta trust in the process
'Cause nothing lasts forever anyway
Got my best advise from a broken screen display
[Verse 6]
But you got your eyes down
You say you're gonna leave
Gotta clean house
Just another rinse repeat
On life, and love
Life, and love
[Verse 7]
Don't know what you thinking 'bout
In patterns you've been speaking out
Can't remember meaning
Lord knows I've been reaching
It's harder 'cause the roots run deep
A smile says what I can't see through
I guess half the way I'll meet you
[Verse 8]
But you got your eyes down
You say you're gonna leave
Gotta clean house
Just another rinse repeat
On life, and love
Life, and love
(Life, and love)
