Songtexte: Switchfoot. Nothing Is Sound. 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 you're ashamed of the curse that burns your eyes
You've been hidin' in your bedroom
Hopin' 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 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

Golden, you are
(This world is a dead man down)
Golden, child, you are
(Every breath is a singing crown away)
Golden, don't let go
(Like some debilitated king)
Don't let go tonight

Golden, you are
(Earth spins and your mind goes round)
Golden, child, you are
(Green comes on the frozen ground)
Golden
(And everything will be made new again)

Golden, golden
(Like freedom and spring)
Golden, you are
(Like freedom and spring)
Golden, child, you are, gold
(Like freedom and spring)
