CLIFFS - Golden

https://linktr.ee/cliffsofficial

Following the cracks in these white oak floors
Peeking through knobs of tarnished doors
To catch a glimpse, and try to pin it down
Chippin’ like paint on a concrete wall
Do bricks and boards even want to talk?
Was it better then, than it is now?

And they say shine me, make me shine

If nothing gold can stay
Don’t you push me away
Don't you push me away
If nothing gold can stay
I’m not Golden, I’m not Golden
Anyway

Miles stay high and it runs on “E”
Frame has lost all integrity
It bleeds in rust, and won’t get fixed for good
Unveil the hood to the graceful girl
Ballerina box, but she don't twirl no more
And she’s stopped pretending

She says shine me, make me shine

If nothing gold can stay
Don’t you push me away
Don't you push me away
If nothing gold can stay
I’m not Golden, I’m not Golden
Anyway

And if one day we lose our shine
Precious metals all decline
But they often rise back up again
The worn and used are smooth to touch
Silver hearts are worth just as much
So be grateful, ‘cause they’re cheaper to mend

If nothing gold can stay
Don’t you push me away
Don't you push me away
If nothing gold can stay
I’m not Golden, I’m not Golden
Anyway

If nothing gold can stay
I’m not Golden, I’m not Golden
Anyway
