Lyrics
0:21Am I defined Oh
0:25By the way they look at me
0:29Will I be tried Oh
0:33Would they take what I believe
0:36I shiver on the one
0:38I breathe for two
0:40I give you what you want
0:42I bend the truth
0:44And everything's aflame it's all aglow
0:48I know that I can play that game I fool them all
0:53Oh like gold let it lead me astray oh
1:03Like gold let it take me away
1:08If I turn my back and I leave it all
1:12I'll be running fast 'cause I can't be owned
1:15Oh like gold
1:36Do I belong Oh
1:41I see it start to fade
1:44Teach them a song oh
1:48Now I feel I've been betrayed
1:51I shiver on the one
1:53I breathe for two
1:55I give you what you want
1:57I bend the truth
1:59And everything's aflame it's all aglow
2:03I know that I can play that game I fool them all
2:08Oh like gold let it lead me astray
2:15Oh like gold let it take me away
2:23And if I turn my back and I leave it all
2:27I'll be running fast 'cause I can't be owned
2:30Oh like gold
2:36Everything is brighter now
2:40It shimmers like a stone
2:43And Everything surrounds you now
2:47It's you and you alone
3:07Oh like gold oh like gold
3:23And If I turn my back and I leave it all
3:27I'll be running fast 'cause I can't be owned
3:30Oh like gold
3:38I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight
3:42I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight
3:45I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight
3:49I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight
Am I defined Oh By the way they look at me Will I be tried Oh Would they take what I believe I shiver on the one I breathe for two I give you what you want I bend the truth And everything's aflame it's all aglow I know that I can play that game I fool them all Oh like gold let it lead me astray oh Like gold let it take me away If I turn my back and I leave it all I'll be running fast 'cause I can't be owned Oh like gold Do I belong Oh I see it start to fade Teach them a song oh Now I feel I've been betrayed I shiver on the one I breathe for two I give you what you want I bend the truth And everything's aflame it's all aglow I know that I can play that game I fool them all Oh like gold let it lead me astray Oh like gold let it take me away And if I turn my back and I leave it all I'll be running fast 'cause I can't be owned Oh like gold Everything is brighter now It shimmers like a stone And Everything surrounds you now It's you and you alone Oh like gold oh like gold And If I turn my back and I leave it all I'll be running fast 'cause I can't be owned Oh like gold I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight I'm gonna be the one who sets it all alight
