Black Gold - Editors

(Black gold, black gold

Black gold, black gold)

I know you better than you know yourself

You’re not a secret or a story to tell

I walk on runways just to know you’re safe

Ain’t nothing sacred in this hostile place

Don’t change, don’t change

I need you tonight, I need you tonight

Don’t change, don’t change

We’ll take down satellites

Take down satellites

You’re not gonna be afraid

Now it’s a little late

Black gold is the colour

The dawn never comes

And we don’t answer when you’re wrong

Black gold like no other

Did we ever belong?

Just take them on and then we’re gone

Black gold is the colour

The dawn never comes

And we can’t answer

Put your hand up if you’re running scared

Choke my engine, it cannot be repaired

Our superheroes, well, where are they now?

Put your foot down till the petrol runs out

Don’t change, don’t change

I need you tonight, I need you tonight

Don’t change, don’t change

We’ll take down satellites

Take down satellites

You’re not gonna be afraid

Now it’s a little late

Black gold is the colour

The dawn never comes

And we don’t answer when you’re wrong

Black gold like no other

Did we ever belong?

Just take them on and then we’re gone

Black gold is the colour

The dawn never comes

And we don’t answer when you’re wrong

Black gold like no other

Did we ever belong?

Just take them on and then we’re gone

Black gold is the colour

The dawn never comes

Black gold is the colour

Did we ever belong?

(Black gold, black gold)

Black gold like no other

(Black gold, black gold)

Black gold is the colour

(Black gold, black gold)

Black gold, black gold
