  • Bad blood and no holds barred
    A warning shot, a sacrifice that we made

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far

    Waste of time or waste of fear?
    Do it again, again until you unfocus them away

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far

    All that's golden is never real
    And I won't play fair with you this time
    All that's golden is never sold
    And I'll be thankful when you let go

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far

    With teeth we've come this far
    I'll take this thing by the throat and walk away

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far

    Remember me as I will you
    Honesty will wreck this point that we made

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far

    All that's golden is never real
    And I won't play fair with you this time
    All that's golden is never sold
    And I'll be thankful when you let go

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far

    Taking over parts of mine
    That I will pay for every time

    If I could catch you and cut your ties
    I would leave you, every time

    All that's golden is never real
    And I won't play fair with you this time
    All that's golden is never sold
    And I'll be thankful when you let go

    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far
    You know, you know, you know, you know that you go to far Writer/s: IAIN ANDREW COOK, LAUREN EVE MAYBERRY, MARTIN CLIFFORD DOHERTY
