Lyrics

Fortune Faded (Live in Hyde Park)

[Verse 1]

They say, in chess you got to kill the queen and then you made it

Oh, I, do you?

A funny thing, the king who gets himself assassinated

Hey now, every time I lose

Altitude

You took a town by storm, the mess you made was nominated

Oh, I, do you?

Now put away your welcome, soon you'll find you've overstayed it

Hey now, every time I lose

Altitude

[Chorus]

So divine, hell of an elevator

All the while my fortune faded

Never mind the consequences of the crime

This time my fortune faded

[Verse 2]

The medicated state of mind you found is overrated

Oh, I, do you?

You saw it all go down and now it's time to imitate it

Hey now, every time I lose, oh-oh

Come on, altitude

[Chorus]

So divine, hell of an elevator

All the while my fortune faded

Never mind the consequences of the crime

This time my fortune faded

[Interlude]

Come on, God, do I seem bulletproof? (Ooh-ooh)

[Chorus]

So divine, hell of an elevator

All the while my fortune faded

Never mind the consequences of the crime

This time my fortune faded

So divine, hell of an elevator

All the while my fortune faded

Never mind the consequences of the crime

This time my fortune faded
