Sell Me Out

She said come back some day, from the border line
I found a place we can stay, by the river’s end and
Even though I lose control, she’s strong enough to hold me down
Whether we stay or go we’ll find another way
Beyond the spotlight, secrets craving
Integrity’s all we got, whether we go or not
Beyond this fast life, never changing, grounded in who we are
But she said
Don’t you ever forget who you are in the bright lights
Don’t you ever mistake me for a stranger and
Don’t you ever lose yourself for a falling star and
Don’t you ever sell
Everybody wants to shine here in the shadow lands
Selling dreams on a dime for a big attention and
This small town we live in, dreams sometimes leave us hollow
The bigger we fight to get, don’t trade our happiness
Beyond the spotlight, secrets craving
Integrity’s all we got, whether we go or not
Beyond this fast life, never changing, grounded in who we are
But she said
Don’t you ever forget who you are in the bright lights
Don’t you ever mistake me for a stranger and
Don’t you ever lose yourself for a falling star and
Don’t you ever sell me out
Don’t you ever forget who you are in the bright lights
Don’t you ever mistake me for a stranger and
Don’t you ever lose yourself for a falling star and
Don’t you ever sell me out
