Prosperous Sun
Made some bad decisions
Yeah more than just a few
In the name of love
And in the name of fun
And in the name of art I guess

Doubled was my vision
Muffled was my muse
Well she came to me like tragedy installed inside my chest

Some people only mine diamonds
Some people only pan gold under a prosperous sun
We dress to the nines in Surrender White
Collecting the scraps that fall down from above

Woke up on the front page
Slept right through the headlines
Must have took the long train
Must have booked the wrong flight
But I've - still got the credit card, still got the house keys
Still got our body parts, still got our sanity
Still got some good friends, still got some bad ones too
Still got some old debts, still tryin' to pay a few
Still working long nights, still getting short-billed
Still set my hopes high, I guess I always will
Still got a feeling that we'll end up ok
I don't know how but it's better that way
Some people only mine diamonds
Some people only pan gold under a prosperous sun
We dress to the nines in Surrender White
Collecting the scraps that fall down from above
