Lyrics

Verse 1

Watch the red sun stall

Pinned against the edge of a jagged purple hill

Time is nothing but a heavy shadow on the wall

Wait for the stars to fall into the windows of the silent mill

Pre-Chorus

Run until your lungs give out

Toss your name into the breeze

Everything we worried about

Scattered like some old dead leaves

Chorus

Stay golden stay gold

Before the night gets cold

Keep the light inside your eyes

Before the blue flame dies

Forever young

Just let it stay unsung

Verse 2

Rusted fence stands high

Marking out a place we never meant to stay

Trace the silver lines across the center of the sky

Yesterday was a map we decided to throw away

Pre-Chorus

Run until your lungs give out

Toss your name into the breeze

Everything we worried about

Scattered like some old dead leaves

Chorus

Stay golden stay gold

Before the night gets cold

Keep the light inside your eyes

Before the blue flame dies

Forever young

Just let it stay unsung

Bridge

Nothing changes if we never look back

No gray in the grain

No slow fade to black

Hold the fire

Hold the fire

Hold the fire

Chorus

Stay golden stay gold

Before the night gets cold

Keep the light inside your eyes

Before the blue flame dies

Forever young

Just let it stay unsung

Hook

Ooh let it stay

Ooh let it stay

Just keep it stay

Forever young
