~Deeper Well (a song I wish I wrote) 

by: Kacey Musgraves 

*****

My Saturn has returned

When I turned twenty-seven

Everything started to change

Took a long time, but I learned

There's two kinds of people, one is a giver

And one's always tryin' to take

All they can take

*****

So I'm sayin' goodbye to the people

That I feel are real good at wastin' my time

No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe

You go your way and I'll go mine

It's been a real good time

*****

But you got dark energy, somethin' I can't unsee

And I've got to take care of myself

I found a deeper well

*****

I used to wake and bake

Roll out of bed, hit the gravity bong that I made

And start the day

For a while, it got me by

Everything I did seemed better when I was high

I don't know why

*****

So I'm gettin' rid of the habits that I feel

Are real good at wastin' my time

No regrets, baby, I just think that maybe

It's natural when things lose their shine

So other things can glow

*****

I've gotten older now, I know

How to take care of myself

I found a deeper well

Mm

*****

When I was growing up

We had what we needed, shoes on our feet

But the world was as flat as a plate

And that's okay

*****

The things I was taught only took me so far

Had to figure the rest out myself

And then I found

I found a deeper well

Mm

Mm
