Gold
Jamie Scott Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If they crims and got cold and blue and they
Chase this scream for hard and used but tonight,
Toniiight, I'm gold
Search for purple through
Blue and red berries
Like the bed of tonight
Tonight I'm gold
I'm go ooh ooh old
Colors fadeback this
Nag will stay hero
Arms are lied to them
Certains grey
She's got darkened
Wants go deeper and
Love comes closer and
Hearts get weaker
Umm
So she whispers and to my ear
Words are spoken all I hear for tonight,
Tonight, I'm gold
Rose seem longer in
Life gets harder when
Wars gets crossed in
Life gets broken
Fears gets all
Hearts now has bruises
Words seems smaller when
I'm sadder
Um
I'm gold
Um
I'm gold
Yes, I'm go ooh oh ooh old
Oh, I'm go ooh ooh old
Yes, I'm go ooh old
Umm
The song "Gold" by Jamie Scott is a ballad about finding oneself and feeling empowered in the midst of life's struggles. The opening lines suggest that the singer is surrounded by people who are feeling lost and hopeless, but despite this, they are able to rise above it and declare themselves "gold" tonight. The search for purple through blue and red berries is a metaphor for the quest for something beautiful and unique in the midst of chaos and mundanity, while the mention of lying arms and gray certainties suggests a sense of entrapment and oppression.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more poetic and abstract, with images of fading colors, rising heroes, deeper desires, and broken hearts. The singer envisions a woman who whispers words of strength and encouragement, reminding him that he too is gold. The final repetition of the phrase "I'm gold" serves as a powerful affirmation of self-worth and resilience.
Overall, "Gold" is a song about finding beauty and meaning in the midst of pain and confusion. The lyrics are abstract and poetic, but the message is clear: even when life gets hard, it is possible to find inner strength and rise above the darkness.
Line by Line Meaning
If they crims and got cold and blue and they
If those who have committed crimes turn cold and blue
Chase this scream for hard and used but tonight,
Pursue this scream with persistence, although it may be difficult, but tonight is different
Toniiight, I'm gold
Tonight, I shine like gold
Search for purple through
Looking for something different, something special
Blue and red berries
A mixture of the colors of sadness and anger
We lay down on this
Let's embrace this moment
Like the bed of tonight
Feels like the perfect moment
Tonight I'm gold
Tonight, I shine like gold
I'm go ooh ooh old
I am aging, but still shining
Colors fadeback this
Colors fade away from time to time
Nag will stay hero
Nagging will continue regardless of how positive we try to be
Arms are lied to them
Arms have been deceived
Certains grey
Certain things are uncertain
She's got darkened
She has been emotionally affected
Wants go deeper and
Wanting to go beyond the surface
Love comes closer and
Love is getting nearer
Hearts get weaker
Emotional attachment becomes more fragile
So she whispers and to my ear
She whispers softly to me
Words are spoken all I hear for tonight,
Her words are the only focus tonight
Rose seem longer in
Time seems to stretch on
Life gets harder when
Life becomes more difficult when
Wars gets crossed in
Chaos occurs
Life gets broken
Life shatters
Fears gets all
Fear overwhelms
Hearts now has bruises
Emotions now carry scars
Words seems smaller when
Words lose their power when
I'm sadder
My sadness increases
Yes, I'm go ooh oh ooh old
Yes, I am aging, but I still shine like gold
Oh, I'm go ooh ooh old
Oh, I am aging, but I still shine like gold
Yes, I'm go ooh old
Yes, I am aging, but I still shine like gold
