Banks of Misfortune

from A Dot Inside Your Thoughts by Mixit Ashix

/

lyrics

they say 'little believer
be a heart mender or a book keeper
it's a rainy day when you cry
the rivers are dry
the rivers are dry'

i know i'm betting on the banks of misfortune
but there's a map somewhere
i will find
tiny treasures that I'll keep for a while
and if I'm lonely I will always have the kings
with a heart ache i will pour a cup to sing
oooh

i may be a fool's age
but my boughs break and my knees shake
you say i don't know the truth
i say only the trees do

the yawn of your hand
might be the only proof of you to me
i breathe the wind that magic floats in
i swallow every seed
and i can see the world through stories
you're the one i read

i know i'm betting on the banks of misfortune
but there's a map somewhere
i will find
a beautiful fancy love i've only ever heard the sound of
oooh

i know i'm betting on the banks of misfortune
but there's a map somewhere
i will find
tiny treasures that will keep for a while
and as they're waving I will listen to the kings
with a heart ache i can pour a cup to sing
