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 you're ashamed 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're Golden You are golden Child You are golden Don't let go Don't let go tonight You're a lonely soul Inlet 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 talking 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 Every breath is a singing crown away Like some debilitated king Don't let go tonight Earth Spins and your mind goes ground Green comes on the frozen ground And everything will be made new again Like freedom and spring Hey like freedom and spring Like freedom and spring
