Someone told me to download this song when they wanted me to listen to The Damnwells and it hooked me. By far my favorite song of thiers. I think his "one fool/full wish" is that he and his girl could just enjoy their time. "Golden days" would mean like, really perfect, satisfying time together and he just wants to be caught up in that and nothing else. All he hears is her. I'm confused by the line "there's a bold unbridled lie where my soul once stood." Any ideas?
