Golden
Noah Slee Lyrics

Could it be more obvious
Is it not clear enough

If it were to break it down and reveal itself
If it were explained in more detail

Maybe wasn't even meant to happen
Perhaps it was not meant to occur

But we grew apart and our connection thinned out
But we moved in different directions and lost our bond

Independent thinking
Thinking for oneself

Emotional strings from every corner
Emotional attachments from multiple sources

Time to unlearn these behaviors
Time to abandon these patterns of behavior

Sometimes it's right in front of our eyes
Sometimes the answer is obvious

Sifting through the trauma (yeah)
Sorting through the painful experiences

'Til I'm left with golden (yeah)
Until I am left with something valuable

Pieces that will stand the (yeah)
Pieces that will endure

Stand the test of time (uh-huh)
Endure for a long time

Take me back to my childhood (childhood)
Remind me of my childhood

We're all an extension of those memories (memories)
We are all influenced by those memories

No doubt I will hold every moment
I will remember every moment

Confront or bury we growing in these moments
We develop and learn from these experiences

Seems to be a void at times
There appears to be something missing at times

A continuous effort to extract our lives
Effort is needed to get the most out of our lives

I wish it could be more straightforward
I wish it were simpler

Sometimes it ain't what you expect or what you ordered
Sometimes things do not go as planned

We gotta live with the repercussions sometimes
We have to accept the consequences sometimes

I'm done with waiting in line
I am no longer willing to wait my turn

And I'm telling you to go ahead and live that life
And I am encouraging you to live your life to the fullest

There wasn't peace until, until the moment
There was no peace until that specific point in time

Maybe I'm still learning how to own it
Perhaps I am still learning how to take responsibility

Or maybe we were beautiful in someone's eye
Perhaps we were attractive to someone

Fighting like we're cats and dogs
Fighting intensely

Who's gonna be the last to draw?
Who will be the last to make a move?

Bittersweet, yeah, I got what I wanted
A mixture of happiness and sadness, I achieved my goal

And I hope it was worth your time
And I hope it was worth the effort for you

Foreign time will change things
Time spent in unfamiliar settings will alter things

Becoming so complacent
Becoming too comfortable

Little energy to love the things that hold me lately
Lacking the motivation to appreciate the things that matter to me
