Sitting in a dark, cramped basement 

Watching the sun go down behind the shades 

We all try to find a way out 

Realizing there is much more to today 



Would I make you confess? 

Maybe then we'd slow down a bit 

And relax this pace, relax this pace 



When everything seems to go away 

I can hear the silver call my name 

Nothing happens when I pray, no 

Nothing happens when I pray 

No nothing gold ever stays 



Folks finally seen the simple view 

And I've seen a way out 

Through all the bars then all I seen was you 

I've got an answer for these simple questions 



When everything seems to go away 

I can hear the silver call my name 

Nothing happens when I pray, no 

Nothing happens when I pray 

No nothing gold ever stays 



And as the shadows seem to rise behind me 

I found a way to govern my ears 

Everyone tends to bind up 

Because they don't know 

They don't realize their own fears 

i cant get up, there is much more missing

Is there something to grasp? 



When everything seems to go away 

I can hear the silver call my name 

Nothing happens when I pray, no 

Nothing happens when I pray 

No nothing gold ever stays 



No I can't, no I can't 

I can't even take a breath 

No I can't, no I can't 

I can't ever take a breath 



When everything seems to go away 

Nothing happens when I pray 

No nothing gold ever stays 



No nothing gold ever stays
