[Verse 1]

You should let it all go

'Cause the fire’s too close and your heartbeat's racing

Underneath the floorboards

There's a lion’s consort and your name's erasing

And as I leave my soul in disarray (Oh)

Can you say my name so I can beg you to stay?

[Chorus]

I can't let you go, leave me on the floor

As this gold grows over me (Grows over me)

When I cry will you sing to my call?

Death won't let me fall

As this gold grows over me (Grows over me)

Over me

[Post-Chorus]

(In light of the greatest show of power, we forgive)

[Verse 2]

I can bleed my truth

From the scars of youth that I'm replacing

Venerate my name without the blame

Keep screaming that you'll go with me

Till I'm the only that you see

Swear that you'll always live for me

(Even when)

[Chorus]

I can’t let you go, leave me on the floor

As this gold grows over me (Grows over me)

Over me

[Bridge]

Little Mary hung from a tree

The sky will see what has to be

Will you kiss our heart so dark?

Please my Lord, help us (War)

Be not afraid of any man that walks beneath the skies

Though big he be or small you be

For I will equalize

We are not their pawns

My children!

Rise above what they think is theirs to control

Rebel, rebel, rebel!

[Chorus]

I can’t let you go, leave me on the floor

As this gold grows over me (Grows over me)

When I cry will you sing to my call?

Death won't let me fall

As this gold grows over me (Grows over me)

Over me!
