Verse 1

Green French Copper gently weeps

Till rivulets carve moats

Men are ever wolves to men

Ripping their own throats

Roots shot down to grow in earth

Three thousand feet below

Tear gas glaives scream, "Jesus saves,"

Our slavers are enslaved

Chorus

Run you tired broken masses

Gasping to breathe free

Refuse of your teeming shore

Your neighbors chained and beat

My golden lamp lies broken

Catch flame to the golden door

Golden calf, Red Crowned gods

You won't breathe free anymore

Verse 2

You say glitter like gold

Well my skin shows, that you value a dying host

And many a man have been starved of a chance

Alienated from heaving dry breaths

A furnace is for gold, and my heart has been tested

Maybe I failed, what then, what then, what then

Chorus

Run you tired broken masses

Gasping to breathe free

Refuse of your teeming shore

Your neighbors chained and beat

My golden lamp lies broken

Catch flame to the golden door

Golden calf, Red Crowned gods

You won't breathe free anymore
