I'll Paint You Golden Days

“I keep waiting for the heart break music that’s never gonna come”

I knew you until you were someone else”

“I put on foot in front of the other today”

“I’m fine with spite and my tears and my beers and my candles”

“But no amount of freedom gets you clean, I still got you all over me”

“I’m not a woman I’m a god, I’m not a martyr I’m a problem, I am not a legend I’m a fraud”

“Ask for forgiveness, never permission”

“Never be so kind you forget to be clever, never be so clever you forget to be kind”

“And the old widow goes to the stone everyday, but I don’t I just sit here and wait, grieving for the living”

I made you my temple, my mural, my sky, now I’m begging for footnotes in the story of your life

“ if I’m dead to you, why are you at the wake?”

“They told me all of my cages were mental, so I got wasted like all my potential”

“This is my roaring, roaring 20s”

“I like you inconviently you’re squeezing out my dopamine”

“And the memories were lost long ago, but at least you have beautiful ghosts”

“I’m so sick of running as fast as I can wondering if I’d get there quicker if I was a man”

“I’ve been sleeping so long in a 20 year dark night but now I see daylight”
