Fortune Faded Lyrics

Red Hot Chili Peppers Fortune Faded

They say in chess, you gotta kill the queen 
And then you mate 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 
Nevermind the consequences of the crime this time 
My fortune faded 

The medicated state of mind you find is overrated 
Oh I, do you? 
You saw it all come down and now it's time to imitate it 
Hey now, every time I lose altitude 

CHORUS 

(Instrumental Bridge) 

Come on God, do I seem bulletproof? 
Ooooooooooh
