Iron & Gold Lyrics

All this time

I'll never get back

Oh, you were a trap

No, you were a boy

Who got a new toy

And threw it away

When he got bored

Dressed up like a doll

Up on your wall

The next one in line

Waiting on my downfall

You were the maze

I was the mouse

You made my mind

A madhouse

Oh, the mornings stuck in bed

The stories you'd put in my head

How could I have missed

Suddenly, you'd turn cold

And the story's getting old

How could I have resisted

Don't come back now

Put down the rose

Pick up your tears

And hit the road

Love may be blind

But it knows

The iron from the gold

Stuck in a room

In a body

In a tomb

No end in sight

You put out my light

So, I became friends with the night

Oh, don't let them see

Don't let them know

This operation's about to blow

What are you so afraid of?

In a moment of despair

You deny the whole affair

Baby, take off the white gloves

Don't come back now

Put down the rose

Pick up your tears

And hit the road

Love may be blind

But it knows

The iron from the gold

Don't come back now

Put down the rose

Pick up your tears

And hit the road

Love may be blind

But it knows

The iron from the gold

Don't come back now

Put down the rose

Pick up your tears

And hit the road

Love may be blind

But it knows

The iron from the gold
