Faust, Midas, And Myself

[00:11.52] This song is about a dream
[00:13.66] I had last night
[00:16.10] How an old man tracked me home
[00:19.08] And stepped inside
[00:21.17] Put his foot inside the door
[00:24.19] And gave a crooked smile
[00:26.54] Something in his eyes
[00:28.69] Something in his laugh
[00:31.02] Something in his voice
[00:33.46] Made my skin crawl off
[00:36.16] He said "I've seen you here before
[00:39.02] I know your name
[00:41.45] You could have your pick
[00:44.46] Of pretty things
[00:46.23] You could have it all
[00:48.68] Everything at once
[00:51.94] Everything you've seen
[00:54.10] Everything you'll need
[00:57.22] Everything you've ever had in fantasies"
[01:01.25] You've one life
[01:02.88] You've one life
[01:03.65] You've one life left to leave
[01:06.04] You've one life
[01:06.84] You've one life
[01:08.19] You've one life left to leave."
[01:12.25] I woke up from my dream
[01:14.66] As a golden man
[01:16.77] With a girl I've never seen
[01:19.13] With golden skin
[01:22.02] I jumped up to my feet
[01:24.21] And she asked me what was wrong
[01:26.84] And I began to scream
[01:28.47] I don't think this is me
[01:31.72] Is this just a dream?
[01:33.52] Or really happening
[01:36.23] You've one life
[01:37.52] You've one life
[01:38.68] You've one life left to leave
[01:41.33] You've one life
[01:42.33] You've one life
[01:43.43] You've one life left to leave
[01:46.99] What direction
[01:48.76] What direction
[01:51.29] I'm splitting up
[01:52.84] I'm splitting up
[01:53.89] This is my personal disaffection
[01:56.57] What direction
[01:58.48] What direction
[01:59.48] What direction now
[02:02.10] I looked outside the glass
[02:04.53] At golden shores
[02:06.18] Golden ships and masts
[02:10.16] With golden cords
[02:12.57] As my reflection passed
[02:14.12] I hated what I saw
[02:18.15] My Golden eyes were dead
[02:20.03] And a thought passed through my head
[02:22.78] A heart that's made of gold can't really beat at all
[02:26.91] I wanted to wake up again
[02:31.55] I wanted to wake up again
[02:37.69] Without a touch of gold
[02:42.44] Without a touch of gold
[02:45.38]
[02:47.90] What direction (what direction)
[02:52.96] What direction (what direction)
[02:57.97] What direction (what direction)
[03:00.31] What direction (death or action)
[03:03.50]
[03:05.98] Life begins at the intersection
[03:07.87] What direction
[03:08.99] What direction
[03:10.22] What direction now
[03:12.60] I woke up as before
[03:15.32] But the gold was gone
[03:17.50] My wife was at the door
[03:20.17] With her night robe on
[03:23.03] My heart beat once or twice
[03:26.23] And life flooded my veins
[03:28.15] Everything had changed
[03:30.80] My lungs had found their voice
[03:33.51] And what was once routine
[03:35.34] Was now the perfect joy
[03:37.71] You've one life
[03:38.85] You've one life
[03:39.93] You've one life left to leave
[03:42.38] You've one life
[03:44.12] You've one life
[03:45.24] You've one life left to lead
[03:46.53]
