Stay Gold Songtext
von Elliot Maginot

What else is there to talk about now
That we agreed on
Quiet sadness and reclusion?
Just take a cab and let me walk home
I′m trying to get high on delusion

My friends will gladly hate each other
But I take it with a grain of salt
We had the streets and shook the power
Until I got tired of them all

And now it's getting too dark
For us to stay gold
It′s getting too hard for us to lay low
They put back the devil on the pay roll again


A year from now, she'll be a mother
Still obsessed with self-destruction
She figured out what really matters
I figured out there's no solution

I′ll keep a straight face when it′s needed
And even smile from time to time
I'll take care of the beast and feed it
I know by now what′s mine is mine

You left on time and I suppose
You'll probably make it worth your while
How could you let me get so close
How could I?

Now it′s getting too dark
For us to stay gold
It's getting too hard for us to lay low
Put back the devil on the pay roll again

Now it′s getting too dark
For us to stay gold
It's getting too hard for us to lay low
Put back the devil on the pay roll again
