Gold

[Verse 1]
One eye open, sleeping like a soldier
Steel boots on, head on a revolver
And just outside, vultures circle in the sky
Your trip wire's only good to catch you
Your trap door's only made to fall through in the dark
You're counting wolves to keep you up

[Chorus]
When they bury you with all your gold
You can never stop it burning holes
But you'll still want it
You'll still want it
You'll still want it
And they'll bury you with all you own
'Cause you'll never wanna let it go
If you can't hold it
You can't love it
You can't love it

[Verse 2]
Keys for comfort, mirror for reflection
Fly, magpie, find me some affection
This old heart, needs diamonds to make it start
No coin has ever tried to kiss you
No crown is ever there to hold you, in the dark
You're counting wolves to keep you up

[Chorus]
When they bury you with all your gold
You can never stop it burning holes
But you'll still want it
You'll still want it
You'll still want it
And they'll bury you with all you own
'Cause you'll never wanna let it go
If you can't hold it
You can't love it
You can't love it

[Bridge]
I saw you sleeping like a soldier
Killing the wolves to stay awake
Laying your head on the revolver
Spinning the barrel like a safe

[Chorus]
When they bury you with all your gold
You can never stop it burning holes
But you'll still want it
You'll still want it
You'll still want it
And they'll bury you with all you own
'Cause you'll never wanna let it go
If you can't hold it
You can't love it
You can't love it
