Gilded Age Songtext
von Holy Holy

There was a time
I could look in your eye
Without word of a lie
I could say that I was trying

I was young
And your truth was a drug
I could not get enough
So I moved to supplying but

We were smart
We would never be caught
Always met in your car
Always dropped you in a different place
I heard you caught a blade

It was slow
And we started to know
That I just couldn′t hold up the weight of the gravity

Always there, pulling things from the air
You said, "I used to care"
Well I used to do a lot of things


You were a bird
And you wouldn't be told that the weight of the world
Was trying to pull you down to me
You floated out to sea

I couldn′t make
Couldn't make it right
You never broke from my line of sight
Making it?
Come on we're shrinking seas
We were making it?
Come on we′re shrinking seas

It was slow
And we started to know
That I just couldn′t hold up the weight of the gravity

Always there, pulling things from the air
You said, "I used to care"
Well I used to do a lot of things

You were a bird
And you wouldn't be told that the weight of the world
Was trying to pull you down to me
You floated out to sea


I couldn′t make
Couldn't make it right
Couldn′t make it right
You never broke from my line of sight
My line of sight
Making it?
Come on we're shrinking seas
We were making it?
Come on we′re shrinking seas

You were standing on the shore
Yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn't know the mistakes that you made
And the lake didn't care about the man that you wanted to be
You could see when it all had come back to me

You were standing on the shore
Yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn′t want?
And the lake didn′t care about the man that you wanted to be
You could see when it all had come back to me

Standing on the shore
Yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn't make the mistakes that you made
And the lake didn′t care about the man that you wanted to be
You could see when it all had come back to me

Standing on the shore
Yelling out at the lake
But the lake didn't make didn′t?
And the lake didn't care about the man that you wanted to be
That you wanted to be
That you wanted to be
That you wanted to be
That you wanted
