Broken Compass from Sinking Feeling by The Burden

Just hear me out

I’ll paint the scene, eyes shut again

Try not to dream - I’m just pretending
Drain out the gold, make me alive
Nothing to hold - leaving me paralyzed

You were all that I know
We could sell these lies and be good as gold
I wanted to be lost with you
But now I know, you’re all I know

Just look on the bright side is all that you’ll say
Well my silver lining has tarnished to grey
Things aren’t as gold as they seemed
I just keep clinging to dreams that won’t help me



You were all that I know
We could sell these lies and be good as gold
I wanted to be lost with you
But now I know, you’re all I know



Sad you were wrong

We can hide away, from painted fears
The cloud graced days, and stained cheek tears

But I was never awake

Just a promise you won’t make


Stay gold, stay golden
