lyrics

you dare propose dominion in your stead
well look at what the holy book has said
that all that goes

once the sun comes up I will sigh, and say I missed you my old friend
once the wall is high in your mind, you think you'd never fall back again
humpty dumpty world is bumpy got you picking up the pieces again
fortune in the sky, I will find you and I'll feel you up again

what's a girl without a kiss
dying world can't suckle without a breast
once the darkness was my only friend oh yeah
well it’s happening again again
when all that goes

once the sun comes up I will sigh, and say I missed you my old friend
once the wall is high in your mind, you think you'd never fall back again
humpty dumpty world is bumpy got you picking up the pieces again
fortune in the sky, I will find you and I'll feel you up again

why oh why oh why oh why
sail those seas of blood and blurry skies oh yeah
fortune is a figment of the mind
well the lord he is in mine
oh no oh no
