Oh, and it's sweet to know
The wisdom that living brings
Since I got a telegram from the god of simple things
She said, “I don't care what you do for a living.”
She said, “I don't care what kind of car you drive.”
“All I want to know right now is what do you believe in
And what it means to you to be alive
Will you stand here in this fire with me?
Are you ready for another life?”
So I bit that bullet and I took that vow
And everything is different now
Everything is different now
The wisdom that living brings
Since I got a telegram from the god of simple things
She said, “I don't care what you do for a living.”
She said, “I don't care what kind of car you drive.”
“All I want to know right now is what do you believe in
And what it means to you to be alive
Will you stand here in this fire with me?
Are you ready for another life?”
So I bit that bullet and I took that vow
And everything is different now
Everything is different now
