《Golden》的歌詞由Fall Out Boy的成員Pete Wentz創作,包含一些人生道理。下面是這首歌的部分歌詞:
Verse 1:
Feel the hope fade away
Time is standing still
We're the lucky ones
But we're so alone
Chorus:
Golden, we were golden
Made a million vows
Now we're so far gone
And we're not coming back
Verse 2:
Feel the rain fall down
You and I fell through
So far out of reach
I guess it's all up to me
Bridge:
Cause we're just one heartbeat away from saving ourselves
We're still on our own, yeah, we're on our own
Chorus:
Golden, we were golden
Made a million vows
Now we're so far gone
And we're not coming back
Outro:
All these things that I knew
Now I don't remember them at all
You said we could try again next year, but what are you now?
We can't come back to golden.
這是一首講述失望、分離和時間的歌曲,但同時提醒人們要向前看,珍惜現在的關係,不要放棄自我。歌詞表達了對過去美好時光的懷念和對未來的期待。同時,歌詞也傳達了一個人要對自己的人生負責,要有勇氣面對現實並尋找自我價值的觀念。
