Refusing To Fall

I clung to your side so nervously

Hiding with my new friend

I didn't know just what to do

And so I followed you to the golden end

Through days and night and laughter bright

We shared our time at peace

But now that everything has come and gone

We say goodbye as we burn this thing 

And now I'm back with a golden smile

And you're doing your thing for the first time in a while

I say hello and you respond with a hi

It's the first time in years and I'm back at your side

I'm different now, older, mature

I can take care of myself and don't need you anymore

You're still the same, deep down, at least

Your appearance has changed but you're no Golden Fleece

I'm the leader now, in charge of it all

And when end comes to end, I will refuse to fall
