The Gold Standard

Gold girl running up stream
Leave behind everything
Loved ones red in the eyes
Sun chased down from the sky
Watching her go by

Green leaves dead on the floor
Someone has been here before
A red rose razed at the knee
Chooses where it will bleed
Whats it going to be?

Gold girl run for your life
Don't turn back or you'll die
We did, we did you wrong
Sun says: Girl come along
Sing me your sweet song
