Gold Mines

Even in good health
With a clear mind
I couldn’t read you half the time
The missing key to your DNA
Flaws our design
It takes a minute, one by one, to steal it
We’re getting better every passing phase of time
A mechanism defend, defend we’ve got this
We’re both standing in a bottomless pit
So- here’s to another day digging in gold mines
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
Fall sweater, tucked beneath your collar
It’s getting colder every walk outside this time
Less talking, through all the misdirections
Thinking of it I don’t seem to feel afraid
Here’s to another day living in gold mines
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
You tend to laugh if off at night
And I seem to feel the same
We tend to laugh if off at night so we should feel ashamed
Your quiet obsessions are misdirections
Character flaws passed down from generations
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
