In Spirit Golden
Fall into flames and you won't do it again
You've learnt a lesson, you've never been taught so
Crawl into blame that you will never reclaim
It's a blessing that you'll never get caught, oh
But underneath we are golden
Hold them, we made them
Our hearts beat, control them
They're too fast, too fast for me tonight
I've seen souls in spirit golden
I've seen souls in spirit gold
Now I've cleaned myself from that unsettling light
It was too bright for me and the love of my life
But if you capture me I'll be within your sight
It was too bright for me, it was too bright tonight
Before the insults and post the praise
You are the subject of a sugarcoat cross hair
During the shell shock of a crystal maze
You are important at your opening funfair
However underneath we are golden
Hold them, we made them
Our hearts beat, control them
They're too fast, too fast for me tonight
I've seen souls in spirit golden
I've seen souls in spirit gold
Now I've cleaned myself from that unsettling light
It was too bright for me and the love of my life
But if you capture me I'll be within your sight
It was too bright for me, it was too bright tonight
Here by a circus on this moonlit night
With the lukewarm light, it's not too frightening
Here by a settle at the starboard side
If you only vouch for me on this golden night, on this golden night
Oh, my burning eyes see souls in spirit golden
I've seen souls in spirit gold
Now I've cleaned myself from that unsettling light
It was too bright for me and the love of my life
But if you capture me I'll be within your sight
It was too bright for me, it was too bright tonight
