Dirt and Gold (feat. Frank Turner)

They say you build it and they will come

But if they don't at least you've built something

And we're so good at demolition

That now we've got nothing

We can't stop it all from crumbling

We're wild animals in a cage

And we're plotting our escape

We scratch our nails into the the walls

As we're counting down the days

In the hope that we'll be saved

Our life story lost it's thread

And now it's time for bed

The only place I know through the dirt to find the gold

Those words that you said are burning through my head

The only way I know through the dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on

Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on

This ship is sinking and sinking fast

But at least we've got our violins

And we'll keep playing and playing loud

'Cause we've got our songs to sing

And they mean everything

Our life story lost it's thread

And now it's time for bed

The only place I know through the dirt to find the gold

Those words that you said are burning through my head

The only way I know through the dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Yeah

Okay

Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on

Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on

Our life story lost it's thread

And now it's time for bed

The only place I know through the dirt to find the gold

Those words that you said were burning through my head

The only way I know through the dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Dirt to find the gold

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keeping on.
