[Verse 1] I, I somehow find I find myself one step behind the tide I beg you please, I beg you please And I, despise this conscience of mine That will not let me lie I beg you please, I beg you please [Chorus] It's like rubbing gold off my hands Trying to see for what it is, I don't think I can It's like rubbing gold off my hands I let it go, I watched it fall, blind as I am [Verse 2] Blind, blind as I am I see the truth and I have been a fool I beg you please, I beg you please As I, I watch you go I scream for you from deep within my soul I beg you please, I beg you please [Chorus] It's like rubbing gold off my hands Trying to see for what it is, I don't think I can It's like rubbing gold off my hands I let it go, I watched it fall, blind as I am [Middle 8] I tried to find myself But all I found was an empty shell So I tried to lose myself But I was blind by the beauty of your heart, your heart [Chorus] It's like rubbing gold off my hands Trying to see for what it is, I don't think I can It's like rubbing gold off my hands I let it go, I watched it fall, blind as I am
