searching through the night for someone so dear, doesn't it feel better when you hold me near

so come with me baby, let's lay where it's shady, under the orchard bloom

just because i called it quits doesn’t mean it didn’t hurt more than a little bit

still making sense of the year that it all disappeared

fight with our hopes and our hearts and our hands, we're the architects of our last stand

i don't want a theocracy or some idol ideology, we're all made from stars from above, i pledge allegiance to my soul

i’ll tell you what you already know, you can’t do this all on your own

i feel unhappy, i feel so sad, i have lost the best friend that I ever had

but i am an ocean, the tide pulls you in, once you surrender your fate begins

did my grandmother feel the rage, was she overwhelmed by the tall order of playing the patriarchy game

might serve one as a muse, oh but if i could choose, i too would fly

nothing that came easy ever stood the test of time

oh my backbone, harder than stone, i'mma go east, i'mma go west, i'mma come home

my country is like a lover, but me and my lover have drifted apart

sometimes i wanna be all by myself, sometimes my soul needs a little help

was taught to not throw the first fist, but if you take a hit, finish that son of a bitch

any hurries, we can delay, any worries, we can belay, any burden, we can give away

you who philosophize, disgrace and criticize all fears, take the rag away from your face, now ain't the time for your tears

i don't want to worry about dying, i just want to worry about those sunshine girls

what if desire is a gift and not a sin
