“Plated Gold” is the “winner song” from Chili, a contestant on the Danish X Factor, who came in second.
Chili was from the start dubbed by many as the winner of the show, but in the final, she had to see herself being beaten by Morten Nørgaard, which many people thought was a wrong decision.
[Verse 1]
Tell me what you're thinking
Easier to let me know
Fire, ice, repeating
But we never used to stay this cold
[Pre-Chorus]
I know this is the start of how it's ending
You falter every time you say my name
Rewind to the beginning
And love me till I lose you again
[Chorus]
Like a kid who won't let go
Wrap our words in plated gold
But I know we're best apart
Ring the bells and tell the choir
That I'm ready now
I'm ready now
[Verse 2]
Loving you is crazy
I wrote it on the bathroom wall
Old enough to know it
Young enough to take your call
[Pre-Chorus]
I know this is the start of how it's ending
You falter every time you say my name
Rewind to the beginning
And love me till I lose you again
[Chorus]
Like a kid who won't let go
Wrap our words in plated gold
But I know we're best apart
Ring the bells and tell the choir
That I'm ready now
I'm ready now
[Bridge]
Go tell your boys you were my first
Tell them it hurt and get your credit
Baby, I don't care
I know you meant it when you said
A day without me felt like you disappeared
[Chorus]
Like a kid who won't let go
Wrap our words in plated gold
But I know we're best apart
Ring the bells and tell the choir
That I'm ready now
I'm ready now
Like a kid who won't let go
Wrap our words in plated gold
But I know we're best apart
Ring the bells and tell the choir
That I'm ready now
I'm ready now
[Outro]
Ready now
I'm ready now
Tell the choir that I'm ready now
I'm ready now
