city of gold - dan gray lyrics

[verse 1]
cast all the stones you want in my direction
none of the tomes will break my connection
submarine cables extend across our vast oceans
silverstein tables covered in magazine ad slogans
i’d rather raise my last glass to socrates
than sit in class surpassed by wannabes
gesture to the sky as a sign of celestial defiance
while other guys live without parental guidance
every ounce of lies come with a grain of truth
the evidеnce lies inside a strain of proof
it’s just a mattеr of how the empire talks
take my hand so we can start the fire walk
newborns become the scorn our parents inherit
when love is above the storm comments discredit
hold me close now before the affection becomes static
whisper in my ear the objections among fanatics

[verse 2]
my achilles heel is the wrath of an obscene scorn
she laid with lilies in a river i’ve seen before
not inside the basket meant for leaving moses
but adorned in a wedding dress feeling hopeless
never took the stand as a witness to the affair
my attitude to their business was laissez*faire
can’t judge me now for what happened in those two seasons
i won’t budge how i rationed my time with those two demons
i saw the past present itself in the future at the door
time stood still when i heard sounds of the war
tensions seemed high before i ever entered the picture
but questions couldn’t answer how i got caught in the mixture
trapped in a city of gold without the midas touch
the friends i’ve made are a priceless bunch
the north star disappeared when i lost my sense of direction
decide for yourself to follow my lead at your discretion
