Mine is Gold
Golden Resilience: Triumph Over Betrayal
Lyrics
Wait just a little bit longer
Expressing a request for patience.
Before you stab me in the back and walk away
Warning against betrayal and abandonment.
‘Cause I’ve grown a little bit stronger
Highlighting personal growth and strength.
And now you’re choking on those deadly words you ate
Referring to the consequences of hurtful words.
I can’t wait to watch you fall
Anticipating the downfall of someone.
Like the castle you built on sand
Comparing the person's foundation to a fragile castle on sand.
I won’t let you live my life from inside my head now
Asserting control over personal life and thoughts.
Let you out, it’s hard to pretend how
Expressing difficulty in pretending.
On, and on, and on it goes
Describing an ongoing and repetitive situation.
Your heart is black and mine is gold
Contrasting the speaker's and the other person's hearts.
Make my way to places I’m bound for
Expressing a determination to reach certain destinations.
Don’t you say that you wanted this more
Challenging the sincerity of the other person's desires.
On, and on, and on it goes
Reiterating the ongoing nature of the situation.
Your heart is black and mine is gold
Reaffirming the contrast between the speaker's and the other person's hearts.
Take all the time that you asked for
Granting the other person the requested time.
‘Cause I can see the lack of energy in your eyes
Observing a lack of enthusiasm or commitment.
I’m walking out through the back door
Choosing to leave without wasting time.
‘Cause there’s no point to waste away these days inside
Questioning the purpose of spending time indoors.
I’m learning how you’re burning down
Recognizing the destructive actions of the other person.
All the bridges you built by hand
Highlighting the destruction of connections built.
I won’t let you live my life from inside my head now
Reiterating control over personal thoughts and life.
Let you out, it’s hard to pretend how
Expressing the challenge of pretending.
On, and on, and on it goes
Describing the ongoing and repetitive nature of the situation.
Your heart is black and mine is gold
Repeating the contrast between hearts.
Make my way to places I’m bound for
Expressing determination to reach certain destinations.
Don’t you say that you wanted this more
Challenging the sincerity of the other person's desires.
On, and on, and on it goes
Reiterating the ongoing nature of the situation.
Your heart is black and mine is gold
Reaffirming the contrast between the speaker's and the other person's hearts.
