You look at me, as if im gold 

You say im so soft and sweet

You spoil me with kindness 

You give me all your love 


You say you can't live without me

You say if I hurt you, you would die


I see the fear in your eyes 

At the slightest hint of aggression


I look at my callused, beaten hands   

I look back on the damage...

The damage I have closed

I look back on my inner fire


I look at my hands

Hands you once compared to gold and silk 


I try to cool the fire in my veins

Im worried 


They say nothing gold can stay...


Will I just fade away?

Will I burn our city of gold to to the ground?

Will I be the reason you turn to ash under my fingers?


From ashes we came and to ashes we shall return 



But from the ashes I shall rise again 

Reborn from my mistakes   


Surrounded by the crumbled pieces 

Of our city of gold.





Please cool the fires raging in my veins

Help me Build up our walls, stronger and stronger


Maybe this time we can survive this fire

Maybe we can make it out alive 

Maybe our gold can stay




( the original nothing gold can stay Idea is not mine it is robert frost's, I have a personal connection to it that's why I used it  )
