Lyrics City and Colour

City and Colour

Silver and Gold

Last night I dreamt that they dropped a bomb

Oh the seas ran dry and the winds had calmed

The skyscrapers fell, and crumbled to dust,

And their skeletons of steel were covered in rust

And everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared

Colours were drained straight from the sky

And nothing living had survived

Mountains were merely removed from the earth

And silver and gold had lost all its worth

And everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared

Oh everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared

I woke from the dream in a cold, cold sweat

I was full of doubt and deep regret,

For suddenly it was all so clear to me;

There was nothing left in which to believe

And everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared

Oh everything I loved and feared had all at once disappeared
