Goldrush

Goldrush Verse 1 I came with dust in my boots And a promise I believed was true The sun was high, the road was long Every man thought he’d be the one They said there’s fire in the ground Riches where the river bends around I followed words I shouldn’t trust Chasing shine, breathing rust Chorus Goldrush, calling out my name Goldrush, feeding on the flame I ran until I lost my way Goldrush, took more than it gave Verse 2 I saw a man fall to his knees Hands full of dirt, eyes full of greed No prayer said, no tears cried Just another dream that bled dry The night came down like a loaded gun Moonlight judged what I’d become Every step felt bought and sold By the weight of wanting gold Chorus Goldrush, calling out my name Goldrush, feeding on the flame I ran until I lost my way Goldrush, took more than it gave Bridge If I don’t make it back home Lay me where the cold winds roam No crown, no cross, no written name Just a man who lost the game Verse 3 Morning broke, I stood alone Empty hands, a heart of stone What I chased was never mine Just a lie dressed up to shine Final Chorus Goldrush, you had me blind Goldrush, stole my peace of mind I don’t run, I don’t chase Goldrush, I know your face Outro The river moves, the earth stays still No gold can bend a man’s will
