Gold Blood

Another day another landslide

 I’m covered up and buried out of sight

 Another question not to get right

 A nothing answer hidden out of mind

 I can feel it in the water

 I can see it in the breaking light

 Tell me are we getting closer?

 Tell me are we going to get this right?

 I can feel it in the water

 I can see it in the breaking light

 But I know I’m gonna falter

 And I know I’m going down this time

 Time to put it all behind us, revel in what isn’t here

 I never knew that this would mean so much, never knew that I would care 

 You know that

 All I asked for was the minimum

 Was that too much for you?

 A call to check that you’re not invisible

 Was it too much too soon?

 Now it’s over

 Days I thought were gone and left behind

 When I woke they’re all that I could see so then I

 Patiently refused to be all I ever knew

 And it’s working out so perfectly

 Just let me know if it’s even worth

 All the gold that I can see

 I’m telling you that these powder blues

 Are a fix for all but me so…
