The Alchemist

歌詞

I am the alchemist I can turn words to gold Take out the bitterness and leave in the good I know is there I am an optimist I take your words for truth And you're just a little kid with some inner work to do So wrap me in chains and pour me some poison It's not your fault if I get disappointed Yeah, I know this pain could be all avoided Still I'm holding out hope That I can turn you to gold (Oh, oh, oh, oh) To gold (Oh, oh, oh, oh) You are an archetype Somebody's broken son Tall with two handsome eyes, but talk to me like I'm someone (Someone, someone) Oh, but you only want what you could throw away (Throw away) While I'm tryin' to be your sun in all your rain So wrap me in chains and pour me some poison It's not your fault if I get disappointed Yeah, I know this pain could be all avoided Still I'm holding out hope That I can turn you to gold (Oh, oh, oh, oh) Oh, to gold (Oh, oh, oh, oh) And it's killing me, the fantasy Is better than you're ever gonna be one day (One day, one day, one day) But it's buried deep inside of me The voice that tells me it gets better if I stay So wrap me in chains and pour me some poison It's not your fault if I get disappointed Yeah, I know this pain could be all avoided Still I'm holding out hope That I can turn you to gold
