We used to be the brightest stars
Thinking that the world was ours
When we didn't learn from our mistakes
Our lights were glowing like the sun
Didn't stop for anyone
But it only takes one nudge before it breaks
And I tried to save it for so long
A time where blankets shielded our fears
And now what we thought just feels so wrong
These blankets only dry up our tears
Year after year the light gets much dimmer
Ambushed by the darkness outside
Outside
But year after year I still can see the shimmer
Dancing in the whites of your eyes
Your eyes

Golden
Wasted opportunities
For you and me
Falling
Tripping on the eulogies
Of what we could've seen

We used to think that it was fun
To find the good in everyone
What would give a reason not to trust
But that was when we didn't know
That some people could be so cold
A heart of metal quickly turns to rust
And I tried to tell you for so long
That blankets won't protect you from fire
And now that you've figured out what's wrong
I guess that you can call me a liar
Cause year after year the light still gets dimmer
Ambushed by the darkness outside
Outside
But it's starting to get hard to see the shimmer
Peeking from the whites of your eyes
Your eyes

Golden
Wasted opportunities
For you and me
Falling
Tripping on the eulogies
Of what we could've seen

So why can't we just be what we used to be
Yeah why can't we just see what we used to see
When we live in a world surrounded by darkness
Maybe a little light is just the thing we need

Golden
Wasted opportunities
For you and me
Falling
Tripping on the eulogies
Of what we could've seen
