We Are Golden
[Verse 1]
Maybe you can understand
We don't need to get away
Cause I had the lion's heart
Before you threw the keeper in
I would trade indifference
For a little tenderness
But I could change my mind
We could paint it black and white
Challenge what the Devil thinks
Losing my religion's hard
For it was never anything
Where the hell did you come from
Heaven's where the heart lives
But you're original
[Chorus]
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
[Verse 2]
Yesterday I saw the change
Fever comin' over me
I can't spend another day
I'm out of money anyway
Even if the curtains close
Doors will open everyday
Cause we're original
I've been dreaming we could settle down
I crumble till my words sound right
Honest, honest, honest, honest, honest
I believe the things we talk about
Unravel till we've got it all right
Honest, honest, honest, honest, honest
I've been dreaming we could settle down
I crumble till my words sound right
Honest, honest
[Chorus]
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
[Breakdown]
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
[Chorus]
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
I don't wanna lift
I just wanna exist
But I just keep on falling—
Falling—falling into your hands
We are golden
