Iron Pyrite

Past the age of reason Can't guilt shame or treason He sought fame and fortune Bet his life on Death Mentioned its worth in gold He tried to offer his soul It was worth nothing at all Flesh was all he owned And what if that was his friend Caught up in the shortest revenge But that gold multiplied like ten Strange thing to run from a friend How could one get so cold The sky and that age so gold Smoke cleared, mirrors broke All that glitters ain't gold All that glitters ain't gold (3x) Iron pyrite that shines so bright An amazing sight but all that glitters ain't gold Iron pyrite takes a fool to get sold I took you for one, now take your glittering stone Gold can't be used in depth Curtain call, that high knit That's served through all, we own to get Words to lose that I sink with a ship So he ran for shore Took one last big breath Gloves full of iron pyrite But invents slight death Iron pyrite that shines so bright An amazing sight but all that glitters ain't gold Iron pyrite takes a fool to get sold I took you for one, now take your glittering stone All that glitters ain't gold (3x)
