Platinum

Through his changing eyes
He’ll watch you realizing that
He won’t need your help anymore
All that he brings he offers just
To himself unwisely
But he can’t disguise that
It’s himself he’s only fighting for
When he leaves here
No one’s gonna follow
Chasing after hollow
Now it doesn’t seem so easy
Watching it slip he wonders if
It was his decisions
That made these incisions
In the one’s he knew before he’d grown
Looking down at where he had been
Trading life for profit
Never thinking off it
He cast off and found himself alone
When he leaves here
No one’s gonna follow
Chasing after hollow
Now it doesn’t seem so easy
But he left here searching
For another moment he could
Try to find his own fit
Now it doesn’t seem so easy
Wish he had it together now
Through his changing eyes
He’ll watch his faded prizes
Sit alone and look for something more
All that he has he offers just to himself and wonders
If the weight he’s under
Could be shouldered by another soul
