Faster, Sooner, Now Lyrics by David Gray
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Hey now, you got me by the tongue
I feel like there's nowhere I belong
And they're working it pretty hard
And they're selling it by the yard
But it's more than I can afford
That's all that I know

Leader, it comes as no surprise
See now, these are coins that were his eyes
Silver dollars and hoods of steel
Tell me nothing can be revealed
The more you get it the less you feel
That's all that I know
Starts a shivering in my spine
And a fever I can't define
It gets colder the higher you climb
That's all that I know

You kill me with every word you say
I'm dead now, along with faith and chivalry
Silver dollars and hoods of steel
Tell me nothing can be revealed
The more you get it the less you feel
That's all that I know
Colder the higher you climb
Colder the higher you climb
Colder the higher you climb
That's all that I know
Hey now, you got me by the tongue   I feel like there's nowhere I belong   And they're working it pretty hard   And they're selling it by the yard   But it's more than I can afford   That's all that I know      Leader, it comes as no surprise   See now, these are coins that were his eyes   Silver dollars and hoods of steel   Tell me nothing can be revealed   The more you get it the less you feel   That's all that I know   Starts a shivering in my spine   And a fever I can't define   It gets colder the higher you climb   That's all that I know      You kill me with every word you say   I'm dead now, along with faith and chivalry   Silver dollars and hoods of steel   Tell me nothing can be revealed   The more you get it the less you feel   That's all that I know   Colder the higher you climb   Colder the higher you climb   Colder the higher you climb   That's all that I know
