Hotel Books - Run Wild, Young Beauty lyrics

rate me

Sometimes I feel like some sort of gold being

I’m some sort of metal that only has purpose when someone needs somethin'

And people wouldn’t chase after me if it wasn’t for greed

If it wasn’t for the purchasin' of some sort of peace

And my hopes & dreams are put on display for all to see

But under heat, they bend, they bleed

And maybe u couldn’t tell

This was once beautiful, it’s pure gold, just covered in black ink

Covered in the charcoal colored remains of ashes from the last time somethin' burned me

But baby, I can be somethin' u need so bend me in that fire until

I fit a shape that can offer u some sort of utility

I can see u, but I can’t touch u, I can touch u

But I can’t feel u I can feel u, but I can’t see u I used to, but then I went blind

Mend me into a cup, so when u get too drunk

You will think of me or mend me into a ring, or some sort of jewelry

So I can hold some sort of diamond within me

And people won’t notice me, but will see I possess somethin' with beauty

Make me into buckles for the shoes on ur feet

So when u run away from this broken down street

You can take me with u when u chase ur dream

Make me into a music box so when I am opened

People can feel enlightened

Make me into a trophy, so someone can hold me high

As they boast to the sky that they don’t need anythin'

Make me into a medallion, a true sign of victory

But not as flashy as a trophy, so it possesses some dignity

Make me into a locket that u can wear around ur neck so

I can possess a picture of the man who made u feel the best

Or at least better than I eva did

I can touch u, but I can’t see u, I can see u

But I can’t feel u I can feel u, but I can’t touch u

I used to, but then u left my life

You are not one to look for gold, or any sort of monetary value

And that’s why I will always love u

So don’t make me into anythin' u might lose

Please don’t make me into another excuse

Make me feel like me me so I can make u feel like u

I can feel u, I can touch u, I can’t see u

Where have u gone? I can feel u, but I can’t see u

I can see u, but I can’t touch u, I can touch u

But I can’t feel u, all I can feel is that ur love makes me feel alive
