Nothing gold can stay

Nothing gold can stay


Listening to every heart beat till they finally die
Feeling every tear drop till the moment that they dry
Experiencing all emotions till they at last subside
Grasping for every single moment till the end of time

Nothing gold can stay
It always fades away
It’s just the world’s way
That nothing gold can stay

Bring on the darkness that comforts me
The blackness, the truth of my reality
In the shadows I will live silently
Empty as I am made out to be

Listening to the silence till it finally screams
Watching every nightmare form from simple dreams
Feeling the pain as the world splits at the seams
Grasping for understanding to what it really means

Nothing gold can stay
It always fades away
It’s just the world’s way
That nothing gold can stay

Bring on the darkness that comforts me
The blackness, the truth of my reality
In the shadows I will live silently
Empty as I am made out to be
