The Gold Was Never There

Just past the cemetery on the right
The place that claims to preserve life
Without a breath or drop of blood
Your loved ones lying in the mud
Dark as night and crystal clear
Only whisper, bones have ears
Don’t lose sleep my dear
Dead men have no fear
I know why you lie awake at night
Did you honestly think that this would bring everything you want?
Like you dreamt it’d be?
Bronze made you a baby, silver left you blind, the gold was never there
It was never there
Not a saint but I feel blessed
Lose your anchors you’ll find rest in the open air
Does it make sense to live your life as numbers calculate your time
And you’re always scared
Did you honestly think that this would bring everything you want? Like you dreamt it’d be?
Bronze made you a baby, silver left you blind, the gold was never there
It was never there
Just run with everything you have, into the wild
For your heart and you’ll smile like a child when you know
You know that we can’t live forever
Did you honestly think that this would bring everything you want? Like you dreamt it’d be?
Bronze made you a baby, silver left you blind, the gold was never there
The gold was never there
Oh oh oh never there
