anjovi - pyrite lyrics

fool for the gold
gold for the fool

as the warmth recedes to winter
the scorpion finds the puddle to stare into and see it’s stinger
as the timbers leave their cinder
pleading for forgiveness, till we see that it’s within us
when you put your finger down, it can be hard to heave that finger
might even have to cleave that finger and leave it linger
souls in their grief injured, salt the earth
in broken systems, thieves to pilfer, all it’s worth
looking towards our judgment regretfully
tipping scales to show us substance is heavy
winds brushing sands of time, waves washing mystic seas
hungry ghosts haunting cities, armies march indignantly
rest of us hiding behind a crumbling levee
pointing fingers dumb and blissfully
aplomb with our plum jobs, shy away from the mysteries
epiphanies, cause once you start, it’s hard to let it be
and once they scr+ped what’s left of the witches from the coals
a leper finds their precious gold, left to be a fool
sit atop the largest crop for death to reap their soul
need the push into the restless sea to let release control
in weakness seeing strength, not afraid of being afraid
peace with the pain, all the creatures that we’ve slain
lessons from the thieves we paid
conceit as the flames to the light the path to see our way
some of the biggest drops, under other’s bridges we cross
on our trek to the precipice for benevolent gods
maybe can strip everything, till all that’s left is love
might take everything to give it up
till then, we scratch the itch that pains our soul
looking for magic to brandish and paint the world
digging deep, for what’s left of the veins of gold
that mountain being us, and our pain to behold
fool for the gold
gold for the fool

fool for the gold
gold for the fool
