Important Things Songtext
von The Waifs

Caught up in these changing times
True happiness is hard to find
Everybody wants to do what they wanna do

This world is so unkind
There′s no safety for a heart like mine
Everybody's trying to get what they can from you

Important things before
Don′t seem to matter anymore
We stumble our way through


Now everything is turning blue
Nobody's looking out for you
People only want to do what they want to do

Important things before
Don't seem to matter anymore
We fight our way on through

All alone you sit behind closed doors
You treat the symptom but not the cause
Doesn′t anybody really want to find a cure

People now they say what′s right for me
It's my own truth so let it be
But wouldn′t it be easier with a common view


Important things before
Need to matter even more
I believe that's true.
