Lately I've been thinking that I've got this whole success thing all wrong (so wrong)
But I'm too busy working to notice what I've had all along (so long)
I've been wasting my time trying to prove that I belong (so long)
And I get overwhelmed, immature, selfish and insecure
When I am being somebody I'm not
Would I give it all up
Just to live at the top
Chasing pictures with Hollywood queens
I have been there before
I left awfully raw
Now I'm trying again 'cause I see
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
Oh there is hope where you don't see it most
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
So might as well try-y-y-y just a little bit more
These days I've been hurting 'cause I'm spending too much time on my phone (so long)
Obsessing over numbers, attaching all my worth to a ghost (so long)
I convulse and I crave, for people just to like my display (so wrong)
And I get angry and manic, possessive and panicked
And I start to fumble, forget what to say
Would I give up my heart
Just to be where you are
With your offers and thousands of fans
Wish my vision was clear
I could see that right here
I have everything that I demand
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
Oh there is hope where you don't see it most
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
So might as well try-y-y-y just a little bit more
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
There is hope in the places you don't see it most
There is icing on cake, there are crayons and growth
There are puzzles to solve, there are rivers that flow
Sweaters so cozy it's almost too much
There are butterflies, there are butterflies, huh!
There are ways to escape from the traps of your mind
There are movies with parts that make everyone cry
Sometimes cacti have flowers
And wishes come true
And doors are just open, open just for you
And oh there is gold at the end of the road
There is hope where you don't see it most
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
Oh there is hope where you don't see it most
Oh there is gold at the end of the road
So might as well try-y-y-y just a little bit more
