lyrics

Gold Park

Burn all the stolen
dimes of the gold park
Rob some more riches
the flames crawling over
Drink out the wine
then send out your soldiers

It’s been too many times the weak got run over
I get tired of asking why

Oil stains on our conscience
breathe air filled with coal dust
Shiploads of reminders
dumped in the sea to rust
Antennas keep buzzing
The cold neon lights

Why won’t we loosen our ties on lands and on oceans? We’re running out of time

From your lips I can read
you’ve sent your ships back to sea.
