Silver And Gold

Lyrics

In the shithouse a shotgun
 Praying hands hold me down
 Only the hunter was hunted
 In this tin can town
 Tin can town
 No stars in the black night
 Looks like the sky fall down
 No sun in the daylight
 Looks like it's chained to the ground
 Chained to the ground
 The warden said the exit is sold
 If you want a way out
 Silver and gold
 ♪
 Broken back to the ceiling
 Broken nose to the floor
 I scream at the silence, it's crawling
 It crawls under the door
 There's a rope around my neck
 And there's a trigger in a gun
 Jesus say something
 I am someone, I am someone
 I am someone
 Captains and kings in the ships hold
 They came to collect
 Silver and gold
 Silver and gold
 ♪
 See the coming and the going
 Seen them captains and the kings
 See them navy blue uniforms
 See them bright and shiny things
 Bright, shiny things, yeah
 ♪
 The temperature is rising
 The fever white hot
 Mister, I ain't got nothing
 But it's more than you got
 Chains no longer bind me
 Not the shackles at my feet
 Outside are the prisoners
 Inside the free
 Set them free
 Set them free
 A prize fighter in a corner is told
 Hit where it hurts
 Silver and gold
 Silver and gold
