"Dirt And Gold" lyrics

They say you build it and they will come
But if they don't at least you've built something
And we're so good at demolition
That now we've got nothing
We can't stop it all from crumbling
We're wild animals in a cage
And we're plotting our escape
We scratch our nails into the the walls
As we're counting down the days
In the hope that we'll be saved

Our life story lost it's thread
And now it's time for bed
The only place I know through the dirt to find the gold
Those words that you said are burning through my head
The only way I know through the dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold

Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on
Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on

This ship is sinking and sinking fast
But at least we've got our violins
And we'll keep playing and playing loud
'Cause we've got our songs to sing
And they mean everything

Our life story lost it's thread
And now it's time for bed
The only place I know through the dirt to find the gold
Those words that you said are burning through my head
The only way I know through the dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold

Yeah
Okay

Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on
Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on

Our life story lost it's thread
And now it's time for bed
The only place I know through the dirt to find the gold
Those words that you said were burning through my head
The only way I know through the dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold
Dirt to find the gold

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on
