The Devil Only Knows Lyrics by Mindblind

Barely Illegal

2015

[Verse 1]
I wanna meet a family and have a wife
Buy some kids and bring a house into this life
I'll save the world and plant some trees
Clean the rivers and wash the dirty seas
Maybe I'll be where I want maybe it's not enough


[Chorus]
What's the point in making plans
When all that's left to do is pray
Life will happen anyway (yeah)
I say I'm doing all I can
But the years they are becoming days
And I still haven't found my place


[Verse 2]
I wanna live until my peaceful death
And feel me choke on my last breath
After knowing all that I've yet to learn
I don't wanna be damned forever to burn
Maybe the palest white or the darkest black
Maybe a bullet in the brain or a stab in the back


[Chorus]
What's the point in making plans
When all that's left to do is pray
Life will happen anyway (yeah)
I say I'm doing all I can
But the years they are becoming days
And I still haven't found my place


[Bridge]
I'm having reoccurring nightmares
Of falling in love and feeling alright
The devil only knows
But it is far out of my sight


[Chorus]
What's the point in making plans
When all that's left to do is pray
Life will happen anyway (yeah)
I say I'm doing all I can
But the years they are becoming days
And I still haven't found my place
