pale fire

it's just wrong the way you let them

treat you so bad

they treat you like a fool

broken promises that they'll be cool

only thing they keep

is you locked up

fortune for the brave

while you swim in shallow waters

fortune for the brave

give me back my pale fire

fortune for the brave

while you swim in shallow waters

fortune for the brave

give me back my pale fire

you belong where you believe

what you allow

is what you receive

open your eyes so that you can grieve

if the ones you trusted most

only ever deceived you

fortune for the brave

while you swim in shallow waters

fortune for the brave

give me back my pale fire

fortune for the brave

while you swim in shallow waters

fortune for the brave

give me back my pale fire

give me back my pale fire

on my way to hell

somehow i got free

i was underneath your spell

when she said this to me

let's get the waitress

i think you need a cup of tea

just remember

you're in the matrix

and it's on you to set them free

you see the spider

on that neon web?

well it's not there at all

anywhere but in your head

what's up is down

and what's down is up

the choice is up to you

i left the red pill by your cup

where is the waitress?

let's pay the check

the meal is done

just remember

you're in the matrix

and baby

you're the one

so go back now to your roots

i mean the ones before

your life even began

back when you were just pale fire

jumping from a distant star

to another land

fortune for the brave

while you swim in shallow waters

fortune for the brave

give me back my pale fire

fortune for the brave

while you swim in shallow waters

fortune for the brave

give me back my pale fire

give me back my pale fire
