Golden

(Like freedom in 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 of 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 are 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 You're far from home, it's a perfect place to start (Yeah!) (Burn) (Burn, Burn!) So this final verse is a contradiction And the more we learn the less we know We've been talkin' about 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) Every breath is a fading crown we wear (Golden, Child, you are) Like some debilitated king (Golden, don't let go) Don't let go tonight The Earth spins and the moon goes round (Golden, you are) The green comes from the frozen ground (Golden, Child, you are) And everything will be made new again (Golden) (Like freedom in spring) (Golden, Golden) Hey, like freedom in spring, (Golden, you are, hey) Like freedom in spring (Golden, Child, you are) (Gold...)
