Among the many problems
beset upon a Heart of Gold
is that many claim to own it,
seeking to sell it for themselves.

[We] keep telling ourselves
[we're] "too ******* busy" to really live,
[so we] must pay somebody else
to allow us to live vicariously.

i see you.
but i don't think you see me.
i see you.
your fingers intertwined with hers.
her head on your shoulders.
and your hearts on your sleeves.
i see you.
and oh how i wanna bury my head in the crook of your neck.
oh how i want you to hold me tight in your arms.
oh how i just want you.
you.
just you.
i just really want you.

Hush little child, don't you cry.
Don't cut your arms, I can't say goodbye.
I know it hurts, but you'll be alright.

Careful little child, that's a very sharp knife.
Try to put it down, it won't help you tonight.
I know it's painful, but it will be alright.

Think darling child, it's a long way down.
Jumping off a roof, might **** you  now.
I know it's painful, but you might be alright.

See you, lovely child, you have said goodbye.
You jumped off a roof, now you've lost this fight.
I'm sorry I couldn't help, you tried to hold on tight.

Life isn't easy, and sometimes you can't win this life.
