Lyrics:
to
It drains or drowns you
And the gilded skies could never compare to
What one might find
Deep in an ocean of eigengrau
Deep in an ocean of eigengrau
for any cause I choose; I'll set your world on fire
It's time to break the bars of the gilded cage
Claim my rightful place on the main stage
(I'll)
Cairo to Nepal, crowded railway stations
Slow boat to Bengal, drinking with Croatians
Tea beneath a tree
Seems so wild and free from my gilded cage
But,
Escape velocity minus some
The gilded hero sits and bums
The gilded hero sits and bums
On the last day of the worst year
The argument swells hot in
it over? And is it okay?
Do we know if there's any other way?
Am I useful? Am I sane?
Am I a bird in a gilded cage?
Am I supposed to be feeling this
Take to the sky
Breathe in the atmosphere
Soaring through gilded light
High above it all
Prepare for the freefall
Mercy, cry out to no avail
Fight back,
on the mantle are gilded dream
Still as stone though lifelike they seem
Empty echoes aching in the autumn air
As silence takes its toll
He dreams in gold, he
Gilded streets
The map of broken pots
Of supine bodies and smoldering cigarette butts
Contorted faces
Contempt hidden in the draperies
I avoid my
The sounding is just loud again and shrouded in the gilded gold
I folded cannot hold it real conversations only road
But she want it anyway said I got exquisite
of unripe dawn
If pride doth go before the fall
The summer never was
Promises gilded and hollow
No longer do bind us
All knowing and all wise
the shimmering wealth
Ascendance into slavery
a gilded cenotaph
Forever…
Slaves of a lie
Of Meaningless numbers
Bound in silver chains
slobbering for more
Though
of the slaves
a juicy hog
in a gilded cage
keeping up appearances
of the holy cow
the legal competition
following like choirboys
eyeless directly into the chasm
-Verse 1-
The old ways gone, who am I now
No tribe to claim me, no moon to guide
Show me the way, the gilded dream
-Chorus 1-
So free, what shall
a gilded paradise
Don't pull wool over
Don't pull wool over my eyes
Full moon rising
You've been talking in your sleep
It's not surprising
What you wanted
Here in our gilded cage,
We turn on the news and are entertained.
We are an army of semi informed, chemically maimed.
Paper Tigers that, only
Gilded by light
I'm fire
Longing to bloom
And do what needs to be done
To unleash my heart's desire
Felt my chance was close
Found what I lost
My worth,
preserved in scrolls
Equity of flesh, reserves
Heads down, march to the underworld
Merkurius (gilded)
Beneficial is he to himself
Merkurius (gilded
clay
Like a mirror would say
Whisper tinted words
Golden girl, living in a rosy world
Shine so bright, with nothing but gilded pools
On the brink, I hear
our eyes
What will it take to become all gilded and gold-plated and well?
Make ourselves grow thinner from the inside
Why does reaching stasis have
moments will be lost in time like tears in rain
Time to die
Time to die"
Held my hand up to the stars
Gilded lilies driving cars
It's time to say it
Devouring gasp, to be the air
The sky agape to rain despair
I felt it blanket me, cold cloth of dusk
And when midnight struck, my gilded tomb
Envy of the moon
Living on a lighted stageApproaches the unrealFor those who think and feelIn touch with some realityBeyond the gilded cage
Cast in this unlikely
Living on a lighted stage
Approaches the unreal
For those who think and feel
In touch with some reality beyond the gilded cage
Cast in this unlikely
Living on a lighted stage
Approaches the unreal
For those who think and feel
In touch with some reality beyond the gilded cage
Cast in this unlikely
