Olly Alexander - Gold lyrics

[Verse 1] Am I defined? Oh, by the way they look at me Will I be tried? Oh, will they take what I believe? [Pre-Chorus] I shiver on a one, I breathe for two I give you what you want, I bend the truth And everything's aflame, it's all aglow I know that I can play that game [Chorus] I'll fool them all Like gold, let it lead me astray Like gold, let it take me away And if I turn my back and I leave it all And I'll be running fast, cause I can't be owned Oh, like gold [Verse 2] Do I belong? Oh, I see it start to fade Teach them a song, oh Now I feel I've been betrayed [Pre-Chorus] I shiver on a one, I breathe for two I give you what you want, I bend the truth And everything's aflame, it's all aglow I know that I can play that game [Chorus] I'll fool them all Like gold, let it lead me astray Like gold, let it take me away And if I turn my back and I leave it all And I'll be running fast, cause I can't be owned Oh, like gold [Bridge] Everything is brighter now It shimmers like a stone And everything surrounds you now It's you and you alone [Chorus] Oh, like gold, oh, like gold And If I turn my back and I leave it all I'll be running fast, cause I can't be owned Oh, like gold [Outro] I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight
