"Goldenboy" lyrics

"Goldenboy"

I never said no when they asked if I need the approval
But lately I'm stretched so thin I can see right through
Never thought about what I want just followed and listened
Been playing this part so long

I don't know if you're close enough to hear me
Please don't leave me
Come back home
My intentions were sincere
All these years
But now I know

I'm trying to come to terms with myself
Always been who I should be
For the sake of somebody else
And I could carry all of this weight
God knows that I've tried to
God knows that I'm bound to break

Try to please everyone, be the poster child
And I've kept this up for quite a while
Letting go of who I've been to come back to you
But it's been so long

I don't know if you're close enough to hear me
Please come near me
Don't let go
'Cause my intentions were sincere
All these years
But now I know

I'm trying to come to terms with myself
Always been who I should be
For the sake of somebody else
And I could carry all of this weight
God knows that I've tried to
God knows that I'm bound to break

And it's hard to see
All of these parts of me
Real and what's make believe
Come back home
And I'm trying to find a shapes
Inside the lines
Truth in my disguise
Come back home

If you're close enough to hear me
Please come near me
Don't let go
'Cause my intentions were sincere
All these years
But now I know

That I'm trying to come to terms with myself
Always been who I should be
For the sake of somebody else
And I could carry all of this weight
God knows that I've tried to
God knows that I'm bound to break

And it's hard to see
All of these parts of me
Real and what's make believe
Come back home
And I'm trying to find shapes
Inside the lines
Truth in my disguise
Come back home

It's hard to see
All of these parts of me
Real and what's make believe
Come back home
I'm trying to find shapes
Inside the lines
Truth in my disguise
Come back home
