Justice Delivers Its Death - Sufjan Stevens

Silver and gold, silver and gold

Everyone wishes for it

How do you measure its worth?

Just by the pleasure it gives here on earth

Oh, I’m getting old

Oh, I’m getting old

Everyone wishes for youth

How have I wasted my life?

Trusting the pleasure it gives here on earth

Lord, come with fire

Lord, come with fire

Everyone’s wasting their time

Storing up treasure in vain

Trusting the pleasure it gives here on earth

Oh, I see the end

Oh, I see the end

Everyone’s waiting for death

How do you measure its worth?

Justice delivers its gift here on earth

Silver and gold, silver and gold

Silver and gold, silver and gold
