Sold Lyrics

I thought the suits had come for me
Found alternatives to honesty.
body and soul were bought and sold.
Patented and out of reach,
so i reach but it hurts

It kills, it screamsI
and it fills my heart with chills and i take my pills but
i'm still tired of sleeping with the light on.

But if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
pack it up, send it home.
For just one stab at the good life,
that's enough and i'm sold.

So I gave up all my wretched thoughts
Left them out for the less fortunate
Now at the gate i'll skip the queue,
life's not living 'less you're sure to make it through but

Now it hurts, it kills, it screams
and it fills my heart with chills and i take my pills
but I'm still tired of sleeping with the light on.

But if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
pack it up, send it home
for just one stab at the good life,
that's enough and i'm sold.

Lord, I'm sold.


Go on pack me up, I'm sold

Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold
Go on pack me up, I'm sold
and if it keeps the hair out of my eyes,
pack it up. send it home.
for just one stab at the good life,
that's enough and I'm sold.
