From the recording Forgotten People
Lyrics
Silver Heart - The pauper on a string Shouts out I've got it made Then the portrait snaps and breaks Now watch the spirit fade away All the plans are there to read Build a fortress for your society We're going down town to a place Where there's no distinction amongst the human race Fooled you once sold you just twice Got your head tight in the vice Now you want a piece of me Now you want a judgement call Now you want times release Now you want opportunity Slow hand crawl society It don’t fall evenly Take these chains around me We're going to walk free Silver heart The clock it strikes An ancient time Where the eagle's afraid to fly Who gets to decide? No place no eyes no bones to beat Face to face 10 mouths to feed We're going down town to a place Where there's no distinction amongst the human race Walk down the road Walking down the path Love your sacrifice Slow hand crawl society It don’t fall evenly Take these chains around me We're going to walk free Silver heart You can rely on me for anything Now you want a piece of me Now you want a judgement call Now you won't fade away Don’t fade away
