Golden

(Like Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom...) 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 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, 'bout 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 Earth Spins and the moon goes round' (Golden, you are,) Green comes on the frozen ground, (Golden, Child, you are,) And everything will be made new again, (Golden,) Like freedom and spring, (Golden, Golden,) Hey, like freedom and spring, (Golden, you are, hey,) Like freedom and spring (Golden, Child, you are,)
