Sweetie, if you're going to be two faced, at least make one of them pretty. - Marilyn Monroe


This is a gift
Comes with a price
Who is the love
Who is the knife
Midas is king
And he holds me
So tight
Turns me to gold
In the sunlight
I shed my skin
It blows away
In the changing
But as the water
Fills my mouth
It couldn't wash the echoes out
And it swallows me whole 'till
There's nothing left
Inside my soul
As empty as a beating drum
But it's just begun
This is a gift
I am the love
I am the knife
Hold me so tight
I turn to gold
In the sunlight
Empty as a beating drum
Rabbit hearted girl
Becoming
Lion hearted
No - empty hearted
Midas is king
All I see is gold
I am gold
I am cold
This is a gift
