Got lost on the way back home Just wanted to take the back roads Shaking from the dread, shivering from the cold I got tired of feeling safe and talking slow Every step was a dance with hesitance Everything's gold, everything goes An out stretched hand is an open promise It takes more than words to stay honest Fall in and out of belief Fade into me Nothing left to hold me back Line them all up Spread them all out Breathe in, breathe out Watch them fall down I put my ear to the ground just to follow the sound But it only sounds the same, it always sounds the same Everything's gold, everything goes When I'm lying in bed I don't ever sleep I just close my eyes and wait, wait, wait Still as a stone 'Till the birds sing low (You say I'm ok)
