Personas

I swear I've turned a thousand times and can't find the key
And I feel like I've lost half the trip
And now I'm learning and I almost know how to do it
I try to understand people so the light never goes out
Some are real and others are fake
So many others invent a life

Some looking back and others looking up
People that are like houses
And houses that are falling apart

Because there are people to move in
People with folks inside
Busy people
People needing a makeover
Abandoned people
People with lots of light
Furnished people
People that are just for rent and nothing more

People who keep their hearts locked up so they don’t break
But I’m more about giving it all and letting whatever happens happen
Because there are people meant to shine even if they try to dim
Others who came to annoy and some who came to stay

Some are real and others are fake
So many others invent a life

Some looking back and others looking up
People that are like houses
And houses that are falling apart

Because there are people to move in
People with folks inside
Busy people
People needing a makeover
Abandoned people
People with lots of light
Furnished people
People that are just for rent
And it makes me sad, what a shame, what a shame
Having a full fridge and not knowing how to make dinner, what a shame
What a shame, what a shame, what a shame, what a shame, girl
Me trying to convince you
And you out there getting wasted

Because there are people to move in
People with folks inside
Busy people
People needing a makeover
Abandoned people
People with lots of light
Furnished people
People that are just for rent
And people to move in
People with folks inside
Busy people
People needing a makeover
Abandoned people
People with lots of light
Furnished people
People that are just for rent and nothing more
