Faded Gold

Ordained like sadness in the snow
It came to me, wouldn't let go
Is this a nightmare, or a dream?
Depends on what you want to see

Am I the one that broke your heart?
Or was it always torn apart?
Is there a light along the way?
Or are the wicks just for display?

I sat and shut my mouth so long ago
No one can save you now, you sold your soul
No pearls, no stones, no ruby rose
You sold your soul for faded gold

I walked these unfamiliar roads
For longer than I care to know
Cleansing the hurting from inside
With lightning pounding in my mind

Is this the only death in me
That i'm happy to finally see?
Is there a light along the way
Or will I slumber in dismay?

Why wont you sit and shut your mouth
Once and for all?
No one can save you now
You sold your soul

No pearls, no stones, no ruby rose
You sold your soul for faded gold
No emerald crown, or velvet throne
You sold your soul
For faded gold
