[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
