Lyrics
Golden
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Living for the past cause the future's gone
Praying in the dark that you won't go home
I should have said it better
I should have set fire to a letter
Forayed by our own
Playing in the dark, where we bore it all
It all makes sense in the center
All makes sense where I sent her
But I could
Run to your apartment
Hope to get it started better than before
I could write it in a poem
Pretend I used to know you
Better than before
Why is it I want to change for you?
Why is it I want to see this through?
Maybe I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Maybe I'm better off that way
Maybe I don't want to see you stay
But I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Love from the west
Grinning mad, light blue and golden
Found at my best
I'm a sucker for your glowing
Love from the west
Grinning mad, light blue and golden
Found at my best
I'm a sucker for your glowing
Why is it I want to change for you?
Why is it I want to see this through?
Maybe I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Maybe I'm better off that way
Maybe I don't want to see you stay
But I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
Why is it I want to change for you?
(Love from the west)
Why is it I want to see this through?
Maybe I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
(Grinning mad, light blue and golden)
Maybe I'm better off that way
(Found at my best)
Maybe I don't want to see you stay
But I'm sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
(I'm a sucker for your glowing)
Sick of sleeping longer nights with lesser feelings
