"The Path" is about taking a different route and forging a new path for yourself. The narrator is aware of the pressures of fame and the fast-paced lifestyle that comes along with it, but decides to retreat on her own island and searches for her dreams. She is also rejecting the idea of a "savior" as she believes that she must find her own way and heal her own pain. The chorus encourages listeners to find their own path and to rely on the power of the sun to guide them on their journey. Read more on Last.fm.

Born in the year of OxyContin
Raised in the tall grass
Teen millionaire having nightmares from the camera flash
Now I'm alone on a windswept island
Caught in the complex divorce of the seasons
Won't take the call if it's the label or the radio
[Verse 2]
Arm in a cast at the museum gala
Fork in my purse to take home to my mother
Supermodels all dancing 'round a pharaoh's tomb
[Chorus]
Now if you're looking for a saviour, well, that's not me
You need someone to take your pain for you?
Well, that's not me
'Cause we are all broken and sad
Where arе the dreams that we had?
Can't find thе dreams that we had
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Let's hope the sun will show us the path, path
Let's hope the sun will show us the path, path
I just hope the sun will show us the path
Saviour is not me
I just hope the sun will show us the path
Saviour is not me
I just hope the sun will show us the path, path
