Golden Songtext

Golden Songtext
Like freedom and spring
Like freedom and spring
Like freedom and spring
She′s alone tonight with a bitter cup and
She's undone tonight, she′s all used up
She's been staring down the demons
Who've been screaming, "She′s just another so-and-so
Another so-and-so"
You are golden
You are golden, child
You are golden
Don′t let go
Don't let go tonight
There′s a fear that burns like trash inside
And your shame, the curse that burns your eyes
You've been hiding in your bedroom
Hoping this isn′t how the story has to go
It's not the way it goes
It′s your book now
You're golden
You are golden, child
You are golden
Don't let go
Don′t let go tonight
You′re a lonely soul in a land of broken hearts
And far from home is a perfect place to start
Yeah (la-la, la, la)
La, la-la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la
La, la-la, la, la, la
So this final verse is a contradiction
And the more we learn, the less we know
We've been talking ′bout a feeling
We both know inside but couldn't find the words
I couldn′t write this verse
I've seldom been so sure
About anything before
Golden
You are golden, child
You are golden
Don′t let go
Don't let go tonight
This world is a dead man down (golden, you are golden)
Every breath is a fading crown we wear (child, you are golden)
Like some debilitated king (don't let go)
(Don′t let go tonight)
The Earth spins and the moon goes ′round (golden, you are golden)
The green comes from the frozen ground (child, you are)
And everything will be made new again (golden, golden, golden)
Like freedom and spring (golden, golden)
(Hey) like freedom and spring (you are golden, golden)
(Hey) like freedom and spring (child, you are gold...)
Like freedom and spring
Like freedom and spring
She′s alone tonight with a bitter cup and
She's undone tonight, she′s all used up
She's been staring down the demons
Who've been screaming, "She′s just another so-and-so
Another so-and-so"
You are golden
You are golden, child
You are golden
Don′t let go
Don't let go tonight
There′s a fear that burns like trash inside
And your shame, the curse that burns your eyes
You've been hiding in your bedroom
Hoping this isn′t how the story has to go
It's not the way it goes
It′s your book now
You're golden
You are golden, child
You are golden
Don't let go
Don′t let go tonight
You′re a lonely soul in a land of broken hearts
And far from home is a perfect place to start
Yeah (la-la, la, la)
La, la-la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la
La, la-la, la, la, la
So this final verse is a contradiction

(Hey) like freedom and spring (you are golden, golden)
(Hey) like freedom and spring (child, you are gold...)
