Charms
[Verse 1]
My mom gave me her gold charm bracelet when she left me on my own
I can't remember what the charms were or the color of the stone
I still hate your father for sellin' what was never his to pawn

[Chorus]
Maybe bein' human is an orphan condition
And what's missin' isn't meant to be found
Maybe movin' forward is my only ambition
And I never let myself turn around

[Verse 2]
I'm daring to do what she couldn't bring herself to do
Isn't it just like a daughter to make a fool of you?
And the fear that I feel when I see my features reversed in my own daughter's face

[Chorus]
Maybe bein' human is an orphan condition
And what's missin' isn't meant to be found
Maybe movin' forward was my only ambition
And I never let myself turn around

[Verse 3]
I'm darin' to do what she couldn't do
Gonna stay and make different mistakes
Isn't it just like a daughter to throw it in your face?
[Chorus]
Maybe bein' human is an orphan condition
And what's missin' isn't meant to be found
Maybe movin' forward is my only ambition
And I never let myself turn around
