"Fortune" lyrics
"Fortune"
If it is binding
If it is finding out
Nothing fills the valley in my chest
Only something I knew I'd regret
Or so I figure
Until I find myself
Tugging out the linens on the bed
Leaving no impression where I slept
The truth is always when it's gone, it's gone
And I left you a fortune
And even in the full embrace of love
Is it really just one?
We dream of binding
We dream of finding out
Morning comes and rider rings the hand
As if we are anything but powerless
And so I figure
And here I find myself
Mourning my condition, I can't tell
If it's proof that I am sick or well
But you can't paint a picture of the sun
You can't see it undone
The truth is always when it's gone, it's gone
But I left you a fortune
And even in the full embrace of love
Is it really just one?

To get to my soul

Leave it on a lie
Leave it your own way...
MS MR - "Bones" Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone
Boy with a broken soul
Heart with a gaping hole
Dark twisted fantasy turned to reality
Kissing death and losing my breath
Midnight hours cobble street...
Bat For Lashes - "Daniel" Daniel, when I first saw you
I knew that you had a flame in your heart
And under wild blue skies
Marble movie skies
I found a home in your eyes
And we'd never be apart
And when the fires came

Radical Face - "Ghost Towns" I've got no need for open roads
'Cause all I own fits on my back
I see the world from rusted trains
And always know I won't be back
'Cause all my life is wrapped up in today
No past or future here...
