Euphoria

(Album: To Dream Beneath The Scorpion - 2023)

You should know I've made my mistakes
I've been left on my own
I've run from myself catching late rides home
I've pretended so much
I've lied to be loved
I've tried to be someone worth someone

I've tripped on petty things
I've kissed some pretty things
I've slept with someone just to feel the warmth their body brings
I've dreamt and I have fallen
I am the lawless son
They said watch it, young gun

You're gonna get knocked down
And boy, have I
I got bullet holes like polkadots
Like a spider's dozen eyes
They said watch your back
Your thoughts have knives
My shadow hunted me like the wildebeest and the lion

So yeah, I got wounds
And I got bruises like everybody do
Yeah, I've been through it
I've been lost inside the dark I see in you

You're gonna find your way

You can find your way

'Cause at the end of every road
You'll find you in the same mind
And you'll see whatever glows
Is just color for your eyes
So all that leads to gold
If those storybooks were right
Would have the X mark the soul
'Cause what's hidden inside
Is your euphoria

Some wake up in pain
With nothing to blame for the low
Before the grind of the day can give them time to erode
I'm thinking why was I made
Without a light of my own
My horizon betrayed a sunrise I've never known

And I'm telling you there's shine
Hidden in your eye
Some see the sun
And others need to will it to their sky
So get up, Carolina
Sometimes the lawless son
Who needs a light becomes one

I know you got wounds
And you've got bruises like everybody do
Yeah, you've been through it
I've been lost inside the dark I see in you

You're gonna find your way

You can find your way

'Cause at the end of every road
You'll find you in the same mind
And you'll see whatever glows
Is just color for your eyes
So all that leads to gold
If those storybooks were right
Would have the X mark the soul
'Cause what's hidden inside
Is your euphoria
