Black & Gold lyrics

If a fish swam out of the ocean, grew legs and started walking

And the apes climbed out from the trees, and grew tall and started talking

And the stars fall out of the sky, and my tears rolled into the ocean

Now I'm looking for a reason why, you set my world into motion

'Cause if you're not really here, then the stars don't even matter

Now I feel too tall, we all fear

But it's all just a bunch of matter

'Cause if you're not really here, then I don't want to be either

I want be next to you

Black and gold, black and gold, black gold

I looked up into the night sky and see I saw an eye staring back

And all around these golden beacons I see nothing but black

I feel a wave of something beyond though, I don't see what I can feel

If vision is the only validation, then most of my life isn't real

'Cause if you're not really here, then the stars don't even matter

Now I feel too tall, we all fear

But it's all just a bunch of matter

'Cause if you're not really here, then I don't want to be either

I want be next to you

Black and gold, black and gold, black gold

I want to be next to you

'Cause if you're not really here,

then the stars don't even matter

Now I feel too tall, we all fear

But it's all just a bunch of matter

'Cause if you're not really here,

then I don't want to be either I want be next to you

Black and gold, black and gold, black gold
