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

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 

So divine
Hell of an elevator 
All the while my fortune faded 

Nevermind
The consequences of the crime this time
My fortune faded

Come on God
Do I seem bulletproof (ooh)

So divine
Hell of an elevator 
All the while my fortune faded 

Nevermind
The consequences of the crime this time
My fortune faded

So divine
Hell of an elevator 
All the while my fortune faded 

Nevermind
The consequences of the crime this time
My fortune faded
