18 Karat Gold - Johnossi

18 karat gold wouldn’t fill the hole

The bleeding hole in her heart

That’s made from circumstances at home

Cus they kept pulling her hair

So they choked her words

She don’t sleep at night, afraid to turn out the light

And she’s home

I thought: 18 karat gold, would save a lonely soul

But she don’t sleep at night, afraid to turn out the light

Cause they kept pulling her hair

Wouldn’t leave her alone

But if only I could read her mind

And release that stone

In her heart where the sadness grows

I’d operate with this knife

And cut a big fat giant hole

To fill with gold and light

But there’s an endless battle to be won

And me I ain’t a man with an educated mind

And soon, you won’t have the strength to carry on

So you scream about it in the night

Ohh in the night…

In the night…

Ohh in the night…

My 18 karat gold, it fills a dirty hole

A dirty bleeding hole in my heart

You people think it’s made from circumstances at home

Well if someone ever should be pulling your hair

Then I guess you should leave them alone

And now you want me to read your mind

And release that stone

That stone in your heart where the sadness grows

You know I, I’d operate with this knife

And cut a big fat giant hole to fill

Fill with gold and light

But there’s an endless battle to be won

Me I ain’t a man with an educated mind

And soon, you won’t have the strength to carry on

So you scream about it in the night

Next endless battle to be won

I ain’t a man with an educated mind

And you won’t have the strength to carry on

So you scream about it in the night

Ohh in the night…

Ohh in the night…

In the night…
