Burden - Broken Compass Lyrics

Just hear me out
I'll paint the scene, eyes shut again
Try not to dream - I'm just pretending
Drain out the gold, make me alive
Nothing to hold - leaving me paralyzed

You were all that I know
We could sell these lies and be good as gold
I wanted to be lost with you
But now I know, you're all I know

Just look on the bright side is all that you'll say
Well my silver lining has tarnished to grey
Things aren't as gold as they seemed
I just keep clinging to dreams that won't help me

You were all that I know
We could sell these lies and be good as gold
I wanted to be lost with you
But now I know, you're all I know Sad you were wrong

We can hide away, from painted fears
The cloud graced days, and stained cheek tears

But I was never awake
Just a promise you won't make
Stay gold, stay golden
