The Fortune

Empty are the castle grounds when dusk arrives
Silence echoes loudly, for three lives here
Seagull, flying high above the open sky
Flying high and free, past each wistful eye

I brush my arms and legs
I smash my withered face
To show them I'm with no disgrace
Deep in a padded cell
They've locked me in this hell
'Till dawn will ring the hangman's bell

Burning are the hours left for me to share
A cold and icy stare is all I bare
Marching to my death, they'll hang me till I die
Still I know I'll find where my fortune lies

Chorus:
Voices in the air
Leave me with a dream
Crying of despair
Can't you hear me scream?
Soon I'll say no more
Only one last sigh
As they pull the door
There my fortune lies

Solo

Repeat Chorus (2x)
