Lyrics
Verse
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."
Chorus
You are golden, you are golden child.
You are golden, don't let go,
Don't let go tonight.
Verse
There's a fear that burns like trash inside.
And your shame, the curse that burns your eyes.
You've been hiding in the bedroom hoping
This isn't how the story has to go.
It's not the way it goes, it's your book now.
Chorus
You're golden, you are golden child.
You are golden, don't let go,
Don't let go tonight.
Bridge
You're a lonely soul in a land of broken hearts.
Your far from home is a perfect place to start.
Verse
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 the words.
I couldn't write this verse, but I've seldom been so sure
'Bout anything before.
Chorus
Golden, you are golden child.
You are golden, don't let go,
Don't let go tonight.
Outro-Chorus
This world is a dead man down.
Ev'ry breath is a fading crown.
Wear it like some debilitated king.
Earth spinds and the moon goes 'round.
The green comes from the frozen ground
And now ev'rything will be made new again,
Like freedom in spring.
Like freedom in spring.
Like freedom in spring.
