catch me on a good day, catch me on bad day
same old tongue tied twisted soul
leave me on Monday, find me on a Sunday
same young searching lifted soul
doubt is never good for, doubt has never worked for
every shifting shining soul
lucky but you want more, lucky if you'd search for
every single thing that ya' beautiful soul already knows
do you have a heart of gold
do you ever sell your soul
quicker than you planned it, quick but can you stand it
knowing that you're never the one in control
slower makes you panic, slower makes you manic
knowing that you're always the one in alone
clever as a good girl, clever as the next girl
every second ounce of trouble
never's not a good word, never is the last word
every single bursted bubble
do you have a heart of gold
do you ever sell your soul

i got another song to sing
another soul to save
lil humble pie, i
learn to the love the taste,
cuz i know these moments slowly pass me by
*mistakes i’ve made some, bad choices, some,
i’ve definitely chosen more than one,
swam in the pool of sorrow and self pity,
now and then, probably do it again, but when,
i self-heal, self-forgive, i can still love,
still live, cut myself a slice of...
*maybe you’d like me to lick my wounds perpetually,
hold on tight to the pain and the misery, but see,
i balance my sh** spiritually, adeptly,
don’t erase the past it’s my history,
i put it all in the pot, mix it completely, make
the latest, greatest. most beautiful-est me
