David Gray - Faster Sooner Now lyrics

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 its 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 (3x)

that's all that I know
