Years & Years Lyrics
"Gold"

Am I defined? Oh
Oh, by the way they look at me
Will I be tried? Oh
Oh, will they take what I believe?

I shiver on the one
I breathe for two
I give you what you want
I bend the truth
And everything's aflame, it's all aglow
I know that I can play that game, I fool them all

Oh, like gold, let it lead me astray
Like gold, let it take me away
And if I turn my back and I leave it all
I'll be running fast, cause I can't be owned
Oh, like gold

Do I belong? Oh
I see it start to fade
Teach them a song, oh
Now I feel I've been betrayed

I shiver on the one
I breathe for two
I give you what you want
I bend the truth
And everything's aflame, it's all aglow
I know that I can play that game, I fool them all

Oh, like gold, let it lead me astray
Like gold, let it take me away
And if I turn my back and I leave it all
I'll be running fast, cause I can't be owned
Oh, like gold

Everything is brighter now
It shimmers like a stone
And Everything surrounds you now
It's you and you alone

Oh, like gold, oh, like gold
And If I turn my back and I leave it all
I'll be running fast, cause I can't be owned
Oh, like gold

I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight [x4]
