Marigold Lyrics

Album: Bloom

Take it all

I never needed any more

Than days on days and gentle nights

When nothing could stop me

Keep it safe

Taking secrets to the grave

When I was the king just for that one day

When nothing could stop me

Feed my soul

Force a smile, ignore the hole

Wishing like hell that I was still god

With nothing above me

Read my eye

Weary lines

Taking what's mine

Just soil below and nothing above me

Feed my soul

Marigold

I'd rather starve

Than choke what's killing me down...

Give me heresy

We were never told the truth...

The world that spoke, calm these hands

Before they can reach your throat

Give me eyes to see

Her never growing old

Good news!

They hope you choke!

Take heart

It's all fool's gold...

Leave me there

Pockets full of empty air

Paying my penance, curse this prayer

Regret never touched me

She will stay, dressed in choices that I made

Head like a king, but crown like a gravestone

Don't touch me

Feed my soul

Marigold

I'd rather starve

Than choke what's killing me down...

Give me heresy

We were never told the truth...

The world that spoke, calm these hands

Before they can reach your throat

Give me eyes to see

Her never growing old

Good news!

They hope you choke!

Take heart

It's all fool's gold...

With these hands, I could change the world

More than gold, more that I deserve

With these hands, I could change the world

I am a wealthy man, I am loved

Tell me hope's not lost

Soon you'll see I can't take it with me

When to nothing I fade

Gone, borne by the choices I made

Wake up, wake up

And soon you'll see that all hope is not lost

Not gone
