nothing gold can stay Songtext
von missouri surf club

So tell me a tale of snakes and wolves,
And the sun and stars and sea
Tell me a tale of the unforgiving earth,
And not seeing the forest for the trees

The queen′s picked up the king's fallen crown,
It′s finished now

Oh mercy me, I'm full of venom
But the world's got charm for days,
And if there′s one thing life is good at
It′s making my romantic heart ache

Prophets all among you, lying in the weeds
Heads swimming with visions, still they couldn't see
No one knows,
It comes and goes

Some days are okay, some days I can be brave,
Some days I pray the earth will rise and claim me
But what I want and what I′ve got might not be so far apart
I'm through learning lessons, but I′m not done being taught


Stay safe
Stay sane
Don't let gods tell you anything
Stay safe
Stay sane
Nothing gold can stay

Stay safe
Stay sane
Don′t let gods tell you anything
Stay safe
Stay sane
Nothing gold can stay
Stay safe
Stay sane
When you've got nothing to lose,
You've got everything to gain

Stay safe
Stay sane
Nothing gold can stay
