Letra de 'Golden And Green' de The Builders And The Butchers

Close your eyes
And you draw one more day to a close
You choose to be alone
You float through your life as a ghost
And everything heals given time
And everything dies given time
And the scars run together
They're mixing the nerves with the blood

And the soldiers light houses on fire and they burn down
And all your belongings turn to dirt in the ground
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
And everything that's golden and green
Goes to hell

And I was born to wind in the cradle
And I ride on the hot southern breeze
And I twisted the green and the gold and you see
And there's mud on my elbows and feet
And people wanna grow old in the cradle
When the snake's all around in the reeds
And you ask me to fear of no evil
When your fire's all over my feet

And the soldiers light houses on fire and they burn down
And all your belongings turn to dirt in the ground
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
And everything that's golden and green
Goes to hell

I said bring out your Vivian girls
Bring out your cloud-covered pearls
And bring me a cup of your tears
And give me the rest of your years

Because everything dies given time
And I know that this world could be mine
So I close both my eyes and I count my heartbeats
And I know that my wings are on fire, fire
My wings are on fire

And the soldiers light houses on fire and they burn down
And all your belongings turn to dirt in the ground
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
And everything that's golden and green
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
And everything that's golden and green
When your heart's deep and dark as a well
And everything that's golden and green
Goes to hell
