No Gold - Akine

Midnight showers in the dark

Nightmares come streaming with the water

Cold leaks in from the floor

She used to be a business man’s daughter

Future left undiscovered, then

Pain comes dancing with laughter in her body

Now she lies on her favorite bench, lies in her only dress

She rewinds to a time

When she was clean and fresh

Gotta stay on her A-game

Always gotta play and party hard, of course

She had gold running through her fingers

Turns to mold, yeah, she was a thinker

But now she’s sold to the highest bidder

Figures come streaming with the sunshine

All clean and white, except that guy

That stain on his shirt, and the mess is mine

No, I mean hers, she is confined

To what six shames to blame

And can not find herself, no

She had gold running through her fingers

It turns to mold, yeah, she was a thinker

But now she’s sold to the highest bidder

She had gold running through her fingers

Turns to mold, yeah, she was a thinker

But now she’s sold to the highest bidder

And she rewinds to a time

When she was clean and fresh

Never sunk to the right side

City lights in her eyes

She had gold running through her fingers

Turns to mold, yeah, she was a thinker

But now she’s sold to the highest bidder

She had gold running through her fingers

Turns to mold, yeah, she was a thinker

But now she’s sold to the highest bidder

Now she’s numb, she has no one

Now she’s numb, remembers no one
