The fish swam out of the ocean
and grew legs and they started walking
and the apes climbed down from the trees
and grew tall and they started talking

and the stars fell out of the sky
and my tears rolled into the ocean
and now i'm looking for a reason why
you even set my world into motion

cause if you're not really there
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
cause if you're not really there
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold

i looked up into the night sky
and see a thousand eyes staring back
and all around these golden beacons
i see nothing but black

i feel a way of something beyond them
i don't see what i can feel
if vision is the only validation
then most of my life isn't real

cause if you're not really there
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
cause if you're not really there
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold

mmmmmmmmmmmmm
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold
ohhhhhhhh

cause if your not really there
then the stars dont even matter
now i'm filled the top with fear
buts it's all just a bunch of matter
cause if you're not really there
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold
