Compass Lyrics by Shelly’s Gone

Shelly’s Secret

0

How could this compass cost so much, only point where i want it to?
Prone to trust that false scent of fame
Getting lost when that needle's spinning so fast

Ain't goin soft yet, don't even regret giving my heart away
To ideals as empty as clouds
Filling my house with things i thought I had to buy

I got my eye on the kind of beauty I could never know
The kind that positively bowls you over
Gets away before you even hit the ground

No I ain't looking for good things to come me
I just put my hands up and wait for the tide to come and drag me away

Shelly ain't fooling this time, I think she rеally means it
Back in the day I couldn't live that down
Got as closе as I could get to my cloud out on my own

Its getting so dark and grim, I wouldn't last a day
Up against that endless maze
Living life underground don't suit you well but I'm alright

Cause I ain't looking for good things to come to me
I just put my hands up and wait for the tide to come and drag me away

Don't cast your spell now, can't you see I've just about had enough
In a constant state of disarray, its amusing in a way
I could use somebody else's tears on my shoulder just for once, just for once

No I ain't lookin for good things to come to me
I just put my hands up and wait for the tide to come and drag me away
Drag me away
