Black & Gold

If the fish swam out
of the ocean and
grew legs and they
started walking

And the apes climbed
down from the trees
and grew tall and they
started talking
And the stars fell out
of the sky and my
tears rolled into the
ocean
Now I'm looking for
a reason why
you even set my world
into motion
�Cause if you're not
really here
then the stars don't
even matter
Now I'm filled to the
top with fear
but it's all just a bunch
of matter
'Cause if you're not
really here
then I don't want to
be either
I wanna be next to you,
black and gold
Black and gold
Black and gold
mmm-mmm
mm-mm-mm-mm
I looked up into the
night sky,
I see a thousand
eyes staring back
And all around these
golden beacons
I see nothing but black

I feel a way
of something beyond
them, I don't
see what I can feel
If vision is the only
validation then
most of my life isn't
real
�Cause if you're not
really here
then the stars don't
even matter
Now I'm filled to the
top with fear
but it's all just a bunch
of matter
'Cause if you're not
really here
then I don't want to
be either
I wanna be next to you,
black and gold
Black and gold
Black and gold
Mmm-mm
mm-mm-mm-mm
oh-oh-oh

�Cause if you're not
really here
then the stars don't
even matter
Now I'm filled to the
top with fear
but it's all just a bunch
of matter
'Cause if you're not
really here
I don't want to be
either
I wanna be next to you,
black and gold
Black and gold
Black and gold
