Misfortune Teller Lyrics by Down

Down IV Part I - The Purple EP

2007

[Verse 1]
The will was lost
In cities of the dead
The land around them mourned
Too lax to comprehend
The rife of wards
The armies in the skies
The muddled occupied feed
On pseudo-catholic rites

[Pre-Chorus]
Rise of the dead
The word upon our heads is "forlorn"
The size of the dread
Within our padlocked haunts we erode

[Chorus]
A grave mistake
We're right back where we started from
No brave escape
It's right back here we come

[Post-Chorus]
Resent yourself

[Verse 2]
Misfortune's law
Is sketched within our chests
The ram's head has decided
The sheep among us sleep
The layman's worth
The hole above his head
His tyranny is clear
The floor beneath is gone

[Pre-Chorus]
Rise of the dead
The words upon our heads is "forlorn"
The size of the dread
Within our padlocked haunts we erode

[Chorus]
A grave mistake
We're right back where we started from
It's devastating
It's right back here we come
A grave mistake
We're right back where we started from
It's devastating
It's right back here we come

[Post-Chorus]
Resent yourself

[Chorus]
A grave mistake
We're right back where we started from
It's devastating
It's right back here we come
A grave mistake
It's right back where we started from
It's devastating
It's right back here we come

[Post-Chorus]
Resent yourself
Resent yourself
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)
(Resent yourself)

[Outro]
The freedom of rock 'n' roll
The freedom of rock 'n' roll
