This song is one of the songs written as part of Ghosts in the Code to convey the message of the album. It’s about rising above your potential and the low standards set for you before you even get started. The “Fool’s Gold” in the song is the normal life we all pursue, but this song is about pushing beyond that, for something even fuller.

Lyrics:
Feel lost in this endless maze of memories
They're killing me
Days that I'd rather forget altogether
Last forever
But here in the darkness I see light
Maybe I did something right
The ice melts away from this frozen road
They told me how far I could climb
But I'm gonna get my chance to shine
When they see how far I can go

So light a signal fire
Climb the mountain higher
Boundaries gone for good
Doing what we should
Have done so long ago
So let your freedom show
This fool's gold won't deceive
The light inside of me

Feels like I'm losing the game by a landslide
Who's on my side?
It's so lonely waiting for truth when there is none
Just a loaded gun
But I'm gonna live like it's my life
Push out of the pain and strife
I'll try to tune the voices out
I'll find a hope I will pursue
Cuz you can't tell me what to do
I'm certain beyond any doubt


My battle cry rings with uncertainty
I thought it'd be
So different than this plan gone horribly
I can't do this on my own
I don't want to be alone
I guess I need your help
To fix my life and fix myself
