Gold Plated

[Verse 1]

She says there is a film around you I can't see though

Seems though your troubles got the best of you again

I wanna hear her, honey, and turn the other cheek too

But the way she says it I can’t help but understand

[Verse 2]

Everything I've built up of myself to show to people

Turns out it's hollow, gold-plated in the end

While there ain’t no shame in puttin' on a good face, baby

You're running ragged so the whole thing don't fall in

[Verse 3]

I wish I could go back when I was just a baby

Young and pure with no impressions of the world

Every morning as it all unfolds before me

I'd see the whole thing through the eyes of a girl
