Black Gold Shadows

Verse 1

Silver coins

Dripping through the open floor

Heavy barrels

Black gold knocking on the door

The dollar

Fading

Sinking down

Empty

Bankrupt town

Chorus

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late to stand our ground

The truth is buried in the sand

Who holds the power in their hand

Who has control

Who has control

Who has control

Post-Chorus

Finding a way out

Finding a way out

Day by day

Day by day

Verse 2

Sucker punched

Hooked on a pipe that leads to war

Cost of grain

Climbing up the grocery store

Moving

Going

Spinning gears

Buying

Selling

Wasted years

It makes things go

It makes things go

Chorus

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late to stand our ground

The truth is buried in the sand

Who holds the power in their hand

Who has control

Who has control

Who has control

Bridge

Maybe it is time to change the fuel

Maybe it is time to break the rule

Maybe it is time to find the sun

Before the damage is all done

I pray for light

I pray for peace

I pray for hope

To never cease

Guitar Solo

Verse 3

Fraying edges

Watching the petrol dollar fall

Broken walls

Shadows getting very tall

One more day

One more sun

One more chance

To be the one

Chorus

Is it too late to turn around

Is it too late to stand our ground

The truth is buried in the sand

Who holds the power in their hand

Who has control

Who has control

Who has control

Post-Chorus

Finding a way out

Finding a way out

Day by day

Day by day

Outro

Keep the sun shining

Just one more day

Just one more day

Are we strong

Are we weak

Are we strong

Are we weak

One more day

One more day
