Sitting in a dark, cramped basement    Watching the sun go down behind the shades    We all try to find a way out    Realizing there is much more to today       Would I make you confess?    Maybe then we'd slow down a bit    And relax this pace, relax this pace       When everything seems to go away    I can hear the silver call my name    Nothing happens when I pray, no    Nothing happens when I pray    No nothing gold ever stays       Folks finally seen the simple view    And I've seen a way out    Through all the bars then all I seen was you    I've got an answer for these simple questions       When everything seems to go away    I can hear the silver call my name    Nothing happens when I pray, no    Nothing happens when I pray    No nothing gold ever stays       And as the shadows seem to rise behind me    I found a way to govern my ears    Everyone tends to bind up    Because they don't know    They don't realize their own fears    I just don't get it there is ßor Òis thereÓ? much more missing?    Is there something to grasp?       When everything seems to go away    I can hear the silver call my name    Nothing happens when I pray, no    Nothing happens when I pray    No nothing gold ever stays       No I can't, no I can't    I can't even take a breath    No I can't, no I can't    I can't ever take a breath       When everything seems to go away    Nothing happens when I pray    No nothing gold ever stays       No nothing gold ever stays
