The Gold (original demo) Songtext
von Manchester Orchestra

Couldn′t really love you any more
You've become my ceiling
I don′t think I love you anymore
That gold mine changed you
You don't have to hold me anymore
This cave's collapsing
I don′t wanna be me anymore
My old man told me

"You don′t open your eyes for a while
You just breathe that moment down"
Forty hours out of East Illinois
From my father's heart attack


I believed you were crazy
You believed that you loved me
You and me were a daydream
You lost your faith in me

I don′t wanna bark here anymore
Black coal, the Colly
Wasn't really dangerous for us
We caught you coughing
What the hell are we gonna go?
Your lung collapsing
I don′t wanna be here anymore
It just tastes like poison

We don't open our eyes for a while
We just breathe that moment down
Forty hours out of East Illinois
From my father′s heart attack


And I believed you were crazy
You believed that you loved me
You and me we're a daydream
Have some faith in me
