Could you love someone that was never really there?
When times got tough, they never shed a tear,
She's talking, and that shit's getting old,
But you keep on chasin'
Because you can't break free from
The silver and gold
Can't break free from
(Silver and gold, silver and gold)
I got more important things to see,
Well there's more important things for me,
Let's find our own way
(Let's take a bow, gonna leave)
Let's find our own way
Well I've done my time in a pit,
Of despair, watching time slow down,
Said, I've spent my life chasing,
Trying to keep up with the crowd,
Chasin' the silver and gold
Trying to see through the haze
Trying to hear through the noise
But she won't leave me alone, no, no
Oh, could you love someone that was never even there?
When times got tough, she never shed a tear,
She talking, and that shit's getting old,
But you keep on chasin' (the silver and gold)
Because you can't break free from
The silver and gold
Oh you can't break free
It's so hard to break free
Love ain't over
Oh, that silver and gold
She won't leave me alone
