This track is a powerful anthem of resilience and self-belief. The lyrics seem to describe a relationship where one partner has been taken by surprise, possibly due to betrayal or unexpected behavior ("You've got the devil in your eyes. You went and took me by surprise"). Despite this, the speaker asserts their independence and refusal to be swayed by the other's actions ("Say what you wanna say I won't go back"). The repeated refrain "we're golden" symbolizes their inherent worth and strength. It's an affirmation that no matter what happens, they will not only survive but shine brilliantly. The desire to hit the road reflects a longing for freedom and exploration, suggesting that there is more to life than the current situation. Overall, it's an empowering message about maintaining one's sense of self-worth amidst adversity.
