GOLD
Alex Petrounov Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you ever feel alone
In this great big universe
I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold
Fear can drive you mad
Try for all I have

I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold
I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold

I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold
I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold

All gold i'm coming out
All gold i'm coming out gold
All gold i'm coming out
All gold i'm coming out

Maybe you are someone
You sit alone in the setting sun
Look out across the ocean
All alone in the setting sun

I'm never gonna lose you
I'm gonna fight for you
I'm never gonna lose you
I'm gonna fight for you

I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold
I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold

I'm getting burned but I'm coming out gold
I'm getting old but I'm coming out gold
