She's alone tonight with a bitter cup and
She's undone tonight, she's all used up,
She's been staring down the demons
Who've been screaming
She's just another so and so,
Another so and so
You are golden,
You are golden, Child
You are golden,
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go tonight)
There's a fear that burns like trash inside
And your shame of the curse that burns your eyes
You've been hiding in your bedroom,
Hoping this isn't how the story has to go
It's not the way it goes,
It's your book now,
You are golden,
You are golden, Child
You are golden,
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go tonight)
You're a lonely soul in a land of broken hearts
You're far from home, it's a perfect place to start
(Yeah!)
(Burn)
(Burn, Burn!)
So this final verse is a contradiction
And the more we learn the less we know
We've been talkin' about a feeling,
We both know inside but couldn't find the words
I couldn't write this verse,
I've seldom been so sure,
About anything before
Golden,
You are Golden, Child
You are Golden,
(Don't let go)
(Don't let go tonight)
This world is a dead man down (Golden, you are)
Every breath is a fading crown we wear (Golden, Child, you are)
Like some debilitated king (Golden, don't let go)
Don't let go tonight
The Earth spins and the moon goes round (Golden, you are)
The green comes from the frozen ground (Golden, Child, you are)
And everything will be made new again (Golden)
(Like freedom in spring) (Golden, Golden)
Hey, like freedom in spring, (Golden, you are, hey)
Like freedom in spring (Golden, Child, you are)
(Gold...)

Review about Golden Means to me | Reviewer: Plinith | 4/4/09
This song appears to me to mean that the girl is so tired trying to deal with her problems that she's just about to give it all up. She's afraid that she's nothing special and that she doesn't know whare she's going. The song is telling her that she IS special and that she shouldn't give up.
At least, that's my opinion...
I disagree with your disagreement | Reviewer: jen | 2/28/08
First of all it's God, with a capital 'G' and I think this song has everything to do with God. I love this song and Switchfoot is one of my favorite bands and I really think in this song God is telling this girl 'you are golden'.
I disagree | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/13/07
I don't believe this song really has anything to with god. It's one of my favorite songs of all time but I have to disagree on that one.
seems to be a song for me | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/18/07
wow.. I can very much relate to this song. I felt so alone and hurt last wednesday and thursday... I was hiding inside my bedroom just like the girl in the song.. but then God made me realize that I am golden! I am His princess. He loves me so much. I should not let go... I should never let go.. Let's all hold on to Him!
