Jim Eliot - Empty Gold lyrics

[Verse 1] I, I must confess How hard I tried to breathe, through the trees of loneliness You, you must confess How hard you need to see, through the heart beating out my chest [Pre-Chorus] Feel like we've been falling down Like these autumn leaves But baby don't let winter come Don't let our hearts freeze [Chorus] If the morning light don't steal our soul We will walk away from empty gold [Verse 2] Dark as midnight sun Smoke as black as charcoal fills into our fragile lungs Cause when our demons come Dancing in the shadows to a game that can't be won [Pre-Chorus] Feel like we've been falling down Like these autumn leaves But baby don't let winter come Don't let our hearts freeze [Chorus] If the morning light don't steal our soul We will walk away from empty gold [Chorus] If the morning light don't steal our soul We will walk away from empty gold [Bridge] We're the underdogs, in this world alone I'm a believer, got a fever running through my bones We're the alley cats, and they can throw their stones They can break our hearts, they won't take our souls [Bridge] We're the underdogs, in this world alone I'm a believer, got a fever running through my bones We're the alley cats, and they can throw their stones They can break our hearts, they won't take our souls [Chorus] If the morning light don't steal our soul We will walk away from empty gold [Chorus] If the morning light don't steal our soul We will walk away from empty gold We will walk away from empty gold
