Always Gold
We were tight-knit boys, brothers in more than name
You would kill for me and knew that I'd do the same
And it cut me sharp, hearing you'd gone away
But everything goes away, yeah, everything goes away
But I'm going to be here 'til I'm nothing
But bones in the ground
And I was there when you grew restless (ooh)
You left in the dead of night (ooh)
And I was there when, three months later (ooh)
You were standing in the door, all beaten and tired
And I stepped aside
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Everything goes away, yeah, everything goes away
But I am gonna be here 'til I'm nothing but bones in the ground
So quiet down
We were opposites at birth, I was steady as a hammer
And no one worried 'cause they knew just where I'd be
And they said you were the crooked kind, that you would never have
No worth, but you were always gold to me
And back when we were kids, we swore we knew the future
And our woods would take us half way 'round the world
But I never left this town, and you never saw New York
And we ain't never cross the sea
But I am fine with where I am now (ooh)
This home is home and all that I need (ooh)
But for you (ooh), this place is shame (ooh)
But you can blame me (ooh) when there's no one left to blame (ooh)
Oh, I don't mind
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (ooh)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah (ooh)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh (ooh)
Ah, ah, ah (ooh)
And all my life, I've never known where you've been
There were holes in you, the kind that I could not mend
And I heard you say, right when you left that day
"Does everything go away?" Yeah, everything goes away
But I am gonna be here 'til forever, so just call when you're around
You would kill for me and knew that I'd do the same
And it cut me sharp, hearing you'd gone away
But everything goes away, yeah, everything goes away
But I'm going to be here 'til I'm nothing
But bones in the ground
And I was there when you grew restless (ooh)
You left in the dead of night (ooh)
And I was there when, three months later (ooh)
You were standing in the door, all beaten and tired
And I stepped aside
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Everything goes away, yeah, everything goes away
But I am gonna be here 'til I'm nothing but bones in the ground
So quiet down
We were opposites at birth, I was steady as a hammer
And no one worried 'cause they knew just where I'd be
And they said you were the crooked kind, that you would never have
No worth, but you were always gold to me
And back when we were kids, we swore we knew the future
And our woods would take us half way 'round the world
But I never left this town, and you never saw New York
And we ain't never cross the sea

But for you (ooh), this place is shame (ooh)
But you can blame me (ooh) when there's no one left to blame (ooh)
Oh, I don't mind
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh (ooh)
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah-ah (ooh)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh (ooh)
Ah, ah, ah (ooh)
And all my life, I've never known where you've been

"Does everything go away?" Yeah, everything goes away
But I am gonna be here 'til forever, so just call when you're around
