[Verse 1] They said it's just a belt Just leather Metal Shine But I’ve seen boys crawl out that ring Leave pieces of their spine Blood on the canvas tape Names carved into the post You chase that crown of steel You might just lose your pulse [Chorus] Gold on broken bones That’s the price to wear that throne Every scar another step To stand in that ring alone You want the Elite You bleed You feed the hunger of that crowd Gold on broken bones Hear the quiet after loud [Verse 2] Backstage Flickering light Hands shaking through the wrap Doc asks me “You all right?” I just laugh and check the strap Friends become headlights Staring through you Cold In this house of hurt and highlights You grow old before you’re old [Chorus] Gold on broken bones That’s the price to wear that throne Every scar another step To stand in that ring alone You want the Elite You bleed You feed the hunger of that crowd Gold on broken bones Hear the quiet after loud [Bridge] How many shoulders shattered On that painted Fragile floor How many mothers asking “Is my child coming through that door?” Tell me Is this glory Or a curse stitched to my name When the lights fade out forever Will they just remember pain? (ohh) [Chorus] Gold on broken bones That’s the price to wear that throne Every scar another step To stand in that ring alone You want the Elite You bleed You feed the hunger of that crowd Gold on broken bones Was it worth what you allowed?
