Gold Rush versuri

Gold Rush lyrics by Hannah Aldridge

Verse 1
Well I probably wouldn’t come back here
If my parents weren’t around
‘cause I hate the way my name falls
So weightless in this town
I don’t know if this is living
Or slow-motion suicide
But there’s something about Christmas
That makes me blur the line

Verse 2
We’re all smuggling our demons
Like strung out movie stars
We’ve all got a damn good reason
To hide how old we are
Oh the years that seem to disappear
Come back to claim their death
We hold on to our heartache
Like a noosе around our necks

Chorus
And I
I am covered up
Covеred up
By smoke and the dust
The glitter and the rust
Of the Gold rush

Verse 3
I spent a quarter of a century
On truck stop souvenirs
Now home is just a postcard
Saying „Wishing you were here”
I’m chiseled on the prayer list
At Darby church of Christ
And I might go down there on Sunday
If I’m not too stoned to drive

Chorus
And I
I am covered up
Covered up
By smoke and the dust
The glitter and the rust
Of the Gold

Bridge
I rushed into being older
Like a flash in the pan
And the thought just bowled me over
I’ll never be that young
No, we’ll never be this young again

Chorus
And I
I am covered up
Covered up
By smoke and the dust
The glitter and the rust
Of the Gold rush
Of the Gold rush
