Gold Mines Lyrics by Dear Youth

Heirloom

2020

[Verse 1]
Even in good health
With a clear mind
I couldn't read you half the time
The missing key to your DNA
Flaws our design
It takes a minute, one by one, to steal it
We're getting better every passing phase of time
A mechanism, defend, defend, we've got this
We're both standing in a bottomless pit
So here's to another day digging in gold mines
[Chorus]
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
[Verse 2]
Fall sweater tucked beneath your collar
It's getting colder every walk outside this time
Less talking through all the misdirections
Thinking of it, I don't seem to feel afraid
Here's to another day living in gold mines
[Chorus]
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
[Bridge]
You tend to laugh it off at night and I seem to feel the same
We tend to laugh it off at night, so we should feel ashamed
Your quiet obsessions are misdirections
Character flaws passed down from generations
Your quiet obsessions are misdirections
Character flaws passed down from generations
[Chorus]
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
You tend to laugh it off all night
So stay inside and hide, confide
Take a risk, a hit or miss
So stay inside forever
