I can't see where all these days have gone
It's been a year since I last had to take you home
There were stars in your eyes

We pack light and catch the break of dawn
(We catch the break of dawn)
And if I have to I'll leave everything I own
(Leave everything I own)
Cos it's time to shine

Well they tell me there's a reason
But who are they deceiving?
I hope those little pills don't stop my heart
And there's a storm that's deep inside her
And it's blowing all the wilder
But nothing can defeat me when I'm on these plains of gold

I bite so hard that I could break my jaw
(Thought I would break my jaw)
I'm trying to process all the alien things I saw
(Those alien things I saw)
As my mind runs wild

Well they tell me there's a reason
But who are they deceiving?
I hope those little pills don't stop my heart
And there's a storm that's deep inside her
And it's growing all the wilder
But nothing can defeat me while I'm on the plains of gold

Sometimes I feel all alone
Sometimes I feel I can’t go on
But it just sometimes
Then I feel alright

Now I see these golden days are gone
(Those golden days are gone)
And we are back in darkness right where we belong
(Right back where we belong)
But it's on the horizon

Well they tell me there's a reason
But who are they are deceiving?
I hope these little pills won't stop my heart
And it's a cure to my pathos
My chemical imbalance
But nothing can defeat me when I'm on these plains of gold
