Peter Trewavas - El Dorado (II) The Gold lyrics

The gold stops us The gold always did The gold took more lives than Uranium Than Plutonium Pandemonium... The thunder approaches The heavy sighing of the monster... Come to break the heavy weather Come to silence all the singing birds Tearing up the sky like paper White-welding through dark steel of clouds And the release of the sudden rain The gold stops us The gold always did The gold took more lives than Uranium Than Plutonium, Pandemonium The Gold! Jet engines and demolition And the summer rain Like finding a lost child The roads are travelled by many Like promises of peace And some choose not to go The F E A R looks like bravado It always did I see them waiting, smiling On the borders in dawn's mist Or lost to the world in their upturned boats I'll be free or I'll die trying to be Trying to BE
