Lyrics

Fortune

[Verse 1]

Mountain of pearls to soothe the soul

Gold and silver and silk to cover the old

Clocks and rubies crushing these hard bones

I'm going blind from too many shiny stones

[Chorus]

Fortune cast a curse

I knew it would

And fortune buried you

I knew it would

[Verse 2]

Sleep on ugly dreaming wave

Vivid life turn into grey

No friends want to stay around

So moving on to a different part of town

[Chorus]

Fortune cast a curse

I knew it would

And fortune buried you

I knew it would
