Name: Pawn Shop Jewels
Duration: P00H03M42S
Description: This song is about the time where you know you need to remove yourself from a relationship, but before you actually do it. It's about realising the person you were with is not who you thought they were. It's about how hard it is to take that leap and do what's best for you both even when it's really hard to do it.

about

This song is about the time where you know you need to remove yourself from a relationship, but before you actually do it. It's about realising the person you were with is not who you thought they were. It's about how hard it is to take that leap and do what's best for you both even when it's really hard to do it.

lyrics

I had a vision of a holiday
A sandstone terrace, two adjacent graves
A single primrose, a lonely drive
Embarking somewhere, a sleepless night.
(I know that we could get by, but I can do this better on my own)

You’re like pawnshop jewels
You turn my fingers baby blue
You came and made your mark
Then you left me in the dark
And I know that I shouldn't care, But I do
I do.

Age is but a number or so I believe
I’m in my 30’s but I think I peaked
When I was 19
When I was carefree
(All we do is get high and I can do that better on my own)

You’re like pawnshop jewels
You turn my fingers baby blue
You came and made your mark
Then you left me in the dark
And I know that I shouldn't care, But I do
Well if that’s the price I pay
It still hurts in the same way
And I’ll always feel this way around you
Around you.

Can someone save me
Can someone save me
From the blood on my hand
From the time in my head
Oh, holy wine
Give me the strength the strength to run

I know that we can get by but I can do this better on my own.

You’re like pawnshop jewels
You turn my fingers baby blue
You came and made your mark
Then you left me in the dark
And I know that I shouldn't care, But I do
Well if that’s the price I pay
It still hurts in the same way
And I’ll always feel this way around you
I’ll always feel this way around you
I’ll always feel this way around you
I’ll always feel this way around you
I’ll always feel this way around you
Around you.

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world. But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
