Faust, Midas, And Myself Songtext - Switchfoot

Faust, Midas, And Myself - Switchfoot

This one's 'bout a dream
I had last night...
How an Old man tracked me home,
And stepped inside
Put his foot inside the door
And gave a crooked smile
There was something in his eyes
Something in his mouth
Something in his voice
That made my skin crawl

He said - I've seen you here before
I know your name
If you could have your pick
Of pretty things
If you could have it all
Everything at once
Everything you've seen
Everything you'll need
Everything you've had in fantasies...

CHORUS
You've one life
You've one life
You've one life left to lead
You've one life
You've one life
You've one life left to lead

I woke up from my dream,
A golden man
With a girl I've never seen
With golden skin
I jumped up to my feet
And she asked what was wrong
I began to scream
I don't think this is me
Is this just a dream, or really happening?

REPEAT CHORUS

What direction?
What direction?
I'm splitting up
I'm splitting up
This is my personal disaffection
What direction?
What direction?
What direction now?

I looked outside the glass
At golden shores
Golden ships and masts
With golden cords
As my reflection passed
I hated what I saw
My golden eyes were dead
And a thought passed through my head
A heart that is made of gold can't really beat at all

I wanted to wake up again
I wanted to wake up again
Without a touch of gold
Without a touch of gold

What direction?
What direction?
What direction?
Death or action!
Life begins at the intersection.
What direction?
What direction?

I woke up as before
But the gold was gone
My wife was at the door
With her night robe on
My heart beat once or twice
And life flooded my veins
Everything had changed
My lungs had found their voice
And what was once routine
And what was once routine was now the perfect joy

You've one life
You've one life
One life left to lead---Lyrics submitted by Isa.
