Song Lyrics

All fables fail you when you're older
And still the mirror on your wall
Keeps you from staring into the darkness
What vision's keeping you awake?
In fairy tales you try to stay
They echo back at you like a chorus

And you're still too young to know
When you're living for a ghost
Spinning fables when the brightest color's fading
Stories fail you when you're grown
Can't hide us from our fall
But my love for you is bold
Take it all

I found my old friends back at home
And for my father I had all the answers
Paid a price for pretending
Heroes and villains I had made
They're all I have left of my day
In one more page of unwritten endings

Am I still too young too young to know
I've been living for a ghost
In my mind the brightest colors are un-faded
Stories fail you when you're grown
Don't believe them anymore
My love for you is bold but it can't save you
My love for you is bold but it won't change you
My love for you is bold
Take it all

How long can I be golden?
If stories I've told can't save my love
Oh, how do I be
How do I be bold?
How do I be bold?
Stories all been told
Can't save you from it all
