Golden
Mark Crisman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got
To catch
My breath
Worked so hard
To show
That I
Don't care anymore
Prove
To you
That I am strong
Alone

It
Is just
Too much
It has always been
The two
Of us
Through thick and thin
Isn't that what we said

Where did you go?
Where did you go?
I need who you were
More than ever
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
I always thought
That we ran deeper
Pieces of me
Are stuck to the heart
Inside you
Pieces of me
Are stuck to the heart
Inside you

And I'm not leaving
The thread is golden

Words
You said
All the promises
It took
Some time
Reassuring but
I believed
You know I believed
You were true

I let
You in
Yeah, I fell right into it
The wonder
The pain
The fatality




Stepped over it all
On your way to the door

Overall Meaning

In Mark Crisman's song "Golden," the artist appears to be grappling with the loss of a meaningful connection. The singer seems to have worked hard to show their strength, to prove that they were self-sufficient, and that they did not care anymore. However, it becomes clear that this attitude is simply a façade, perhaps meant to mask the deeper pain of separation. The singer asks "where did you go?" and admits that they need the person that they lost "more than ever." It appears that the singer is mourning the end of a relationship that they deeply invested in, perhaps one that they thought would last through "thick and thin."
