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]
