Black Over Gold

Secrets buried safe and sound

Tell me stories of thrones and crowns

You said all of this would be mine

Shimmering in silver dots

I hear a siren calling my name

She says choice is always yours

It doesn't matter much to you or to me

Whether we die on the land or on the sea

The sun will shine, a thousand rains will fall

But your generous grave will hide us all

Rip me open to see in front of me

Immerse me and all I know

What is untold is worth all the gold in the world

Sink with your hopes, burn with the city

I will follow the trail of this banshee calling me

This time, choice is only mine

It doesn't matter much to you or to me

Whether we die on the land or on the sea

The sun will shine, a thousand rains will fall

In your generous grave we'll unfold

I'll stay in here with you

Hold my hand, I won't let you

Drown in their plea for silence

But I know, what is untold

Is worth all the gold in the world
