Son of Laughter - Grace Is Gold текст песни

Исполнитель: Son of Laughter

альбом: The Mantis and the Moon


See the bright bird dancing from Papua New Guinea on your tv screen
He's on a promenade to show the world the fortune he's made
Like beetle's wings in a pile of petals
All the stacked and clean, the adornments of the day
You wanna laugh, but you know this game
'Cause you can see his fortunes fade
How the skins will wither and the colors fade
We bargain and we cling with failing currencies
But grace is gold for broken banks to hold
Don't let it hide
What have you to boast of
How do you introduce yourself
What trophies degrees or hyperboles do you line upon your shelf
What then are you hiding
What sores do you conceal
Despite your convictions,
Your crippling addictions may lead to a better deal
You're afraid we'll see inside through
Your hardened scars and wounds so white
Everybody laughs
To cover up the cracks
Grace is gold
For broken banks to hold
Don't let it hide
You wanna be the bright bird, proud and true
Hey, I do too, I do too
Who could ever guess that the thorn in your side
Is drilling a well of life
So as these tendencies will linger
Tied as tightly around your finger
You are made of clay
Gone tomorrow, but here today
Grace is gold that never grows old
God's grace is gold for broken banks to hold
Don't let it hide
Don't let it hide
