Dust is gold

lyrics

Blinded by the sharp lights of the night
I can hear the bright cars passing by
Sugar melts as coffee burns
Flavored chips and old film lines took me by surprise
And little squirrels, cigarettes and guns
Everyone is raising up his flag
They’re colorblind, colorblind

Steamy faces behind a brothel window
So what’s before the burning of the shades?
He will be betrayed by her true eyes
‘Cause after all, dust is gold and rubbish is a mine.

And little bird’s black silhouettes in flight
Everyone is raising up his flag
They’re colorblind, colourblind

Who achieves the images in black and white?
They left the pictures half and half
(half and half and half)
They left their pictures in the dark...

Sugar melts as coffee burns
Sugar melts as coffee burns
