SOTD – Garbage “Stroke of Luck”

June 19th, 2009

Garbage “Stroke of Luck” Listen via blip

Hanging by threads of pale silver
I could have stayed that way forever
Bad blood and ghosts wrapped tight around me
Nothing could ever seem to touch me
I was what I loved most
Did you know I was lost
Until you found me?

Stroke of luck or gift from God
Hand of fate or the devil’s claws
From below or saints above you came to me
Here comes the cold again I feel it closing in
Its falling down all around me falling

You say that you’ll be there to catch me
Or will you only try to trap me?
These are the rules I make
Our chains were meant to break
You’ll never change me

Here comes the cold again I feel it closing in
It’s falling down all around me falling

Stroke of luck or gift from God
Hand of fate or the devil’s claws
From below or saints above you come to me now

Don’t ask me why
Don’t even try

Stroke of luck or gift from God
Hand of fate or the devil’s claws
From below or saints above you came to me

Here comes the cold again I feel it closing in
It’s falling down all around me falling

Falling falling falling
