A Fortune In Lies

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I can remember when

In the unity of our five-day sessions

Not even once did we hear the siren song

What kind of imagination

Asleep in some lyrical coma

Who's vain futile memory

Could have been so wrong?

You can make a fortune in lies

You can keep a giant alive

You can ride the red

Until everybody smiles

A trifling euphoria

Was such an untimely religion

Maybe your life can explain

The reason for my indecision

Here is a poor man

The heart of this monster creation

He said we both will be heroes

And I was led into temptation

You can make a fortune in lies

You can keep a giant alive

You can ride the red

Until everybody smiles

Can you show me your gold

And your silver?

A hero in frozen water

For the first time in a long time

Everything was right in my world

And then I woke up

Now you've made a fortune in lies

And you kept a giant alive

You rode the red

You rode the red
