Fortress Songtext
von Pinback

Too long ′til fall, sick summer in bed
You and a lazy mood
Ten times the fall, spread, sacked, and I've failed
Nobody move, nobody move

Too long to fall, sat shiver in bed
You and a test of will
Too many fallen, too many failed
Nobody move, nobody move

Days with the light off, freezing
You and I, uneasy, livid

Stop, it′s too late
I'm feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress

Stop, it's too late
I′m feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress


Stop, it′s too late
I'm feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress

Stop, it′s too late
I'm feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress

Safety is a Cootie Wootie with you
Never pretend the chill
Too many shadows, too many sails
Nobody move, nobody move

Summer is only winter with you
How can you really feel?
Two of another, none of a pair
Nobody move, nobody move

Days with the light off, freezing
You and I, uneasy, livid

Stop, it′s too late
I'm feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress


Stop, it′s too late
I'm feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress

Stop, it's too late
I′m feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress

Stop, it′s too late
I'm feeling frustrated
I see no sign of fortress
I see no sign of fortress

Stop, it′s too late (another delay)
I'm feeling frustrated (too many hassles)
I see no sign of fortress (where do we go?)
I see no sign of fortress (how do we follow?)

Stop, it′s too late (another delay)
I'm feeling frustrated (too many hassles)
I see no sign of fortress (where do we go?)
I see no sign of fortress (how do we follow?)

Another delay, too many hassles
Where do we go? How do we follow?
Another delay, too many hassles
Where do we go? How do we follow?
