Alex Ebert - Gold lyrics
[Alex Ebert - Gold lyrics]
Love my fear, my fear go away
Love my pain, my pain is my teacher
Love my anger, for the anger my leader
It lead me to pain, which lead me to change
Which makes me the witness
Which gives me forgiveness
Which gives me perspective
Like "Holy Objective!"
I gotta treat you as myself
I love the world fuck it, I'm corny
Maybe it’s love sure it ain't money
Gimme that cold shoulder like "brrr"
I make a snow cone with it, sir
Yes, I feel alright this shit is work tho
Society's whack people are hurtful
I gotta meditate like I’m a nerd
I got a mantra, here are the words:
I shine gold all the pain inside
Shining gold all that we survive
Turn to gold everything I touch
Do you know why I smile?
Dude, 'cause I work at it
Breathing, repeating "You deserve love"
This shit ain't natural
How many actual people are following love?
I gotta take walks outside
Breathe in my nostrils side-to-side
Jump like a frog dance in the fog
Just to be someone who don't want to die!
I'm not naturally happy
I'm not well-adjusted like y'all
I think about suicide
In morning, noon, and nightfall
I was on crack
I was a hillbilly, you remember that
I was a gun blood on the tracks
I never shot up but heroin black
But baby, I'm back, wherever you at
Gutter to glitter, wherever you at
Gutter to, oh, no
I shine gold all the pain inside
Shining gold all that we survive
Make us whole everything you touch
Shining gold i shine gold
All the pain inside shining gold
All that we survive shining gold
Everything you touch
Everything you touch gold
Everything you touch to gold
To gold everything you touch
Everything you touch to gold
Got the urge to sit by the fire alone, alone
To gold
