"Always Gold" by Radical Face
We were tight knit boys,
Brothers in more then name.
You would kill for me
And knew that I'd do the same.
And it cut me sharp
Hearing you'd gone away,
But everything goes away;
Yeah everything goes away.
But I'm going to be here until I'm nothing
But bones in the ground
And I was there, when you grew restless,
Left in the dead of night.
And I was there, when three months later,
You were standing in the door all beat and tired,
And I stepped aside.
Everything goes away,
Yeah everything goes away.
But I'm gonna be here until I'm nothing
But bones in the ground,
So quiet down.
We were opposites at birth;
I was steady as a hammer.
No one worried 'cause they knew just where I'd be.
And they said you were the crooked kind,
And that you'd never have no worth,
But you were always gold to me.
And back when we were kids,
We swore we knew the future,
And our words would take us half way 'round the world.
But I never left this town,
And you never saw New York,
And we ain't ever crossed the sea.
But I am fine with where I am now:
This home is home, and all that I need.
But for you, this place is shame,
But you can blame me when there's no one left to blame;
I don't mind.
All my life,
I've never known where you've been.
There were holes in you,
The kind that I could not mend.
And I heard you say
Right when you left that day,
"Does everything go away?"
Yeah, everything goes away.
But I'm going to be here 'til forever
So just call when you're around.
