Gold Rush - Recorded at Spotify Studios NYC
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush) diggin' for gold in my neighborhood
(Gold rush) where all the old buildings stood
(Gold rush) and they keep diggin' it down and down
(Gold rush) so that their cars can live underground
(Gold rush) the swingin' of a wreckin' ball
(Gold rush) through these lath and plaster walls
(Gold rush) is lettin' all the shadows free
(Gold rush) the ones I wish still followed me
(Change, please don't change)
(Stay, stay the same)
(Gold rush) I remember a winter's night
(Gold rush) we kissed beneath the street lamp light
(Gold rush) outside our bar near the record store
(Gold rush) that have been condos for a year and more
(Gold rush) now that our haunts have taken flight
(Gold rush) and been replaced with construction sites
(Gold rush) oh, how I feel like a stranger here
(Gold rush) searchin' for somethin' that's disappeared
(Gold rush) diggin' for gold in my neighborhood
(Gold rush) for what they say is the greater good
(Gold rush) but all I see is a long goodbye
(Gold rush) a requiem for a skyline
(Gold rush) it seems I never stopped losin' you
(Gold rush) as every dive becomes somethin' new
(Gold rush) and all our ghosts get swept away
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way
(Change, please don't change)
(Stay, stay the same)
(Cranes, devour the light)
(Strange appetite)
And I've ascribed these monuments
A false sense of permanence
I've placed faith in geography
To hold you in my memory
(Gold rush) I'm siftin' through these wreckage piles
(Gold rush) through the rubble of bricks and wires
(Gold rush) lookin' for somethin' I'll never find
(Gold rush) lookin' for somethin' I'll never find
(Gold rush) diggin' for gold in my neighborhood
(Gold rush) where all the old buildings stood
(Gold rush) and they keep diggin' it down and down
(Gold rush) so that their cars can live underground
(Gold rush) it seems I never stopped losin' you
(Gold rush) as every dive becomes somethin' new
(Gold rush) and all our ghosts get swept away
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way (change)
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way (please don't change)
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way (stay, stay the same)
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way (stay the same)
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way
(Gold rush) it didn't use to be this way
(Gold rush)
