[Verse 1]
She’s like an open book, you know - you never really knew her
Put her down, always looking through her
She climbed down, she took it underground
Safer there, where you could never reach her
Now she walks, head held high
The truth is there, and she will never back down
You can’t fight what you can’t see

[Chorus]
Gold in the shadows
Gold - it’s safer there

[Verse 2]
He’s so strong, he knows you never really knew him
Anothеr one, you thought you could ignore them
And now hе’s gone, and you can’t find him
He climbed down, hidden underground
And now he’s found there’s comfort in the sound, oh
You can’t fight what you can’t see

[Chorus]
Gold in the shadows
Gold - it’s safer there
Gold in the shadows
Gold - it’s safer there
[Verse 3]
She climbed down - you know, the place where you pushed her
It’s easy now - be careful what you wish for
What is buried just might grow
And you know you just might have sown

[Chorus]
Gold in the shadows
Gold - it’s safer there
Gold in the shadows
Gold - it’s safer there
Gold in the shadows
Gold - it’s safer there

[Outro]
It’s safer there
It’s safer there...
