Imagine Dragons – Gold Lyrics 11 years ago
I believe this song is talking about being famous, and how everything is not as it seems.

"First comes the blessing of all that you dreamed
But then comes the curses of diamonds and rings
Only at first did it have its appeal
But now you can’t tell the false from the real"

To me these lyrics in specific talk about the misleading towards becoming famous, as "the curses of diamonds and rings" talks about how you have too much money than you know what to do with. "But now you can't tell the false from the real" to me sounds like love, and how when you become famous, you can never tell when someone loves you, or if they're in love with your fame or money.

"Statues and empires are all at your hands
Water to wine and the finest of sands
When all that you have’s turnin’ stale and it’s cold
Oh, you no longer fear when your heart’s turned to gold

Who can you trust?
Who can you trust?"

These lyrics to me also speak in a way that "when all that you have's turnin stale and it's cold" means that after a while the fame and money begins to wear on you and you are no longer happy, and "you no longer fear when you heart is turned to gold" is talking about how you cannot go back to your old self, because you're so used to having everything.

"Who can you trust?" Is another example of who can you trust to really love you, or really be your friend.
