Lyrics of 'Fortune-teller' by Alkalines

Reading my future while touching my lips
She said I might live long, long enough to enjoy this gift
I said: Hey, ain’t that sweet
And then I kissed her right in her cheek
First thing in the morning I try to identify
Who was the pretty girl in the bed I called mine
She had this shadowy look in her eyes
Only to think about it gives me a chill in the spine

I can’t explain
It was as quick as lightning, but I certainly felt that pain
My brain aches for fuck’s sake
What does it take for you to take me away?

It barely took a blink and she already slipped away
I’m trying to think of what kind of game is she trying to play with me
I was almost at the brink of my sanity to shatter apart
When I realized that she was the gipsy from last night

I can’t, I can’t explain
It was as quick as lightning, but I certainly felt that pain
My heart aches for fuck’s sake
What does it take for you to take me away?

Now this mist is dense
And all this shit is making me feel so tense
She disappeared so fast something is wrong with that
It’s just a hunch but that gift she talked about
Was it my life?
If so, then I guess it is too late
To rely on Christ

What the fuck is that
Following me down these halls
I can feel a heat, my heart it skipped a beat
I’m running a fleet
Oh fuck this door is stuck!
I can feel my blood running down my corpse
