Lyrics

Getaways Turned Holidays

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.

Fate leave on my doorstep

A soldier, a soldier

A fable, a fortune

I long for, I long for

Ever so secret I see

What's in store for me

I won't let it mislead

Oh no. No, it hasn't happened yet

As for the dying

And the fading

And resolve to be

Okay with the natural decay

I'll choose illusion

And safety a hundred times over

I'm prepared to be happy and deceived

I'm supposed to be happy and deceived

Let us find perfection

And nonsense in all we are

Save defects for later

We're angels for now

Hide my uniform pride

Your arrogant side

I'm aching already

Hide your taciturn, mundane expressions

Affection will carry us a little while more

As for the dying

And the fading

And resolve to be

Okay with the natural decay

I'll choose illusion

And safety a hundred times over

I'm prepared to be happy and deceived

I'm supposed to be happy and deceived

Let us be entertained

Let me believe it ends this way

As for this dying

And as for this rotting

I'm okay with this natural decay

I'll choose illusions

And safety a hundred times over

I'm prepared to be happy and deceived

I'm supposed to be happy and deceived

I'm prepared to be happy and deceived

Drop this curtain

I'm happy and naive
