You are not the gold that I thought that you were You are something else altogether You are not the gold that I thought that you were You are something else altogether It's a god it's a god it's a god and it acts like a mother Everything forged will fail and if one god fails go find another To worship through the hardship every hour of every single day I would give you my last breath so don't give your lungs away But if your words are not weighted not weighted by gold They are vague as your story and vague as your soul But if your words are not weighted not weighted by gold They are light as your feathers and light as your soul Fly away just fly away through the forests the trade winds blow mildly I'll play a new rock'n'roll guitar and find god eventually But every god is a chance every god is only a dream But maybe every god is not just an idea You are not the gold that I thought that you were You are something else altogether You are not the gold that I thought that you were You are something else altogether There are two kinds of faith maybe?

One you only have to believe But maybe every god is not just an idea
