Fool's Gold Lyrics - Singles - The Black Maria

There's a machine in my head, there's a grinding in my brain 

The best part is that it turns you on 

The grinding penetrates under the sheets my dear 

We lie in love but with fool's gold 

I want to give you the plans 

Just to make you stop, I want you to get out of here for good 

It's in my bed but my bed is a plot 

And the shovel is anchored down to the floor 

And I won't need to see you pushing up dirt again 

And I won't need to see your gagging on sincerity 

Daylight kills us, KO'd by it and counting to ten 

Faced with choices to pack it up or stand up and fight again. 

There's something in my hand 

Pushing into my veins 

The tablature is for a death march 

I can't miss you because you're already gone 

This is the climax to our love song 

You're in my head but gone for good 

The sonnet's melody plays on 

And I won't need to see you pushing up dirt again 

And I won't need to see your gagging on sincerity 

Daylight kills us, KO'd by it and counting to ten 

Faced with choices to pack it up or stand up and fight again. 

We lie in love but with fool's gold
