Lyrics:
Golden, Golden, Golden
As I open my eyes
Hold it, focus, hoping
Take me back to the light
I know you were way too bright for me
I’m hopeless, broken
So you wait for me in the sky
Browns my skin just right
You’re so Golden
You’re so Golden,
I’m out of my head
And I know that you’re scared
Because hearts get broken
I don’t wanna be alone
I don’t wanna be alone
When it ends
Don’t wanna let you know
I don’t wanna be alone
But I can feel it take a hold
I can feel you take control
Of who I am and all I’ve ever known
Loving you’s the antidote
Golden
You’re so Golden
I don’t wanna be alone
You’re so Golden
You’re so Golden
I’m out of my head
And I know that you’re scared
Because hearts get broken
Golden
Golden
Golden
I know that you’re scared
Because I’m so open
You’re so Golden
I don’t wanna be alone
You’re so Golden
You’re so Golden
You’re so Golden
I’m out of my head
And I know that you’re scared
Because hearts get broken

[Verse 1]
You call me on the telephone, you feel so far away
You tell me to come over, theres some games you wanna play
Im walking to your house, nobodys home
Just me and you and you and me alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Were just playing hide and seek
Its getting hard to breathe under the sheets with you
I dont want to play no games
Im tired of always chasing, chasing after you
[Chorus]
I dont give a fuck about you anyways
Who ever said I give a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess Im just a play date to you
[Verse 2]
Wake up in your bedroom and theres nothing left to say
When I try to talk youre always playing board games
I wish I had monopoly over your mind
I wish I didnt care all the time
[Pre-Chorus]
Were just playing hide and seek
Its getting hard to breathe under the sheets with you
I dont want to play no games
Im tired of always chasing, chasing after you
[Chorus]
I dont give a fuck about you anyways
Who ever said I give a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess Im just a play date to you
[Bridge]
Ring around the rosy
I never know, I never know what you need
Ring around the rosy, I want to give you, want to give you
What you need
[Chorus]
I dont give a fuck about you anyways
Who ever said I give a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess Im just a play date to you
[Outro]
You know I give a fuck about you everyday
Guess its time that I tell you the truth
If I share my toys, will you let me stay?
Dont want to leave this play date with you
