Weight In Gold Songtext
von Alchemize

I′m sorry for the times I was so forlorn
Hiding in my room, losing all hope
Cynical in youth, basking into defeat
When I knew no-one else would come and save me

So scared to voice these thoughts, I'd feel a fool
Became recluse, residual
Naivety choked slow until I′m blue
There's nothing anybody else could do

Ebb away, soak in this pain
Now I don't mind, it′s been the same routine

(Day by day)

Reflecting back, living with these ghosts
Yet learning lessons worth their weight in gold
Self realisation yet the self loathing
Holding out for a sign, bring me back to the light

Mother don′t be so hard on yourself
Feeling responsible but you did your best
Father don't, let the guilt into your heart
I know it took a while but I am glad you finally understand


People keep assuming I′ve found my feet
Fail to realise I'm still masking underneath
I′m not sure these scars will fade away
But I'm aiming to stay the same

Reflecting back, living with these ghosts
Yet learning lessons worth their weight in gold
Self realisation yet the self loathing
Holding out for a sign, bring me back to the light

Reflecting back, living with these ghosts
Yet learning lessons worth their weight in gold
Self realisation yet the self loathing
Holding out for a sign, bring me back to the light

Now that I′m older
Learning the ways of the world
Now that I'm wiser
Taming the chaos within myself

Leaving the past behind
Finding out how to move forward
Now I'm rebuilding
Possibilities opening the way


Reflecting back, living with these ghosts
Yet learning lessons worth their weight in gold
Self realisation yet the self loathing
Holding out for a sign, bring me back to the light
(Bring me back to the light)
