Nothing Stays

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
