Atlas Entity - Visions of Gold Lyrics

You found us near death and returned us to the light
Your words and your shelter turned us friends by the night
Then came the day that began as trade
Promises of riches and fortune we made
We've sealed the deals without a second thought
Sold our souls for the greed that's been bought
We, we crossed through the canyon
Through the dust filtered light, we crossed
Water crashing became deafening and visions of gold filled our sight
We worked together, we shared the haul
We agreed not to pass the waterfall
But when we found the treasures that it hid our hearts proved weak
Like the words we bid
Our hearts proved weak like the words we bid
We worked together, to share the haul
We agreed not to pass the waterfall
But when we found the treasures that it hid our hearts proved weak
Like the words we bid
We crossed through the canyon and visions of gold filled our sight
Day after day, lining our pockets to the top, taking without thinking like an infinite crop
That's when we finally returned to the camp
Minds full of money and lives fulfilled
Yet we were greeted with the horror to find that our men had been killed
My narrow escape is a constant reminder of the treasures that I knew
Someday you will find her
I wasted my life trying to return
Dying in the endless pursuit of prosperity
Dying in the endless pursuit of prosperity
