Song lyrics
They say in chess, you gotta kill the queen 

And then you mate it 

Oh I, do you? 

A funny thing, the king who gets himself assassinated 

Hey now, every time I lose 

Altitude 



You took a town by storm 

The mess you made was nominated 

Oh I, do you? 

Now put away your welcome, soon you'll find you've overstayed it 

Hey now, every time I lose 

Altitude 



So divine, hell of an elevator 

All the while my fortune faded 

Never mind the consequences of the crime this time 

My fortune faded 



The medicated state of mind you find is overrated 

Oh I, do you? 

You saw it all come down and now it's time to imitate it 

Hey now, every time I lose altitude 


So divine, hell of an elevator 

All the while my fortune faded 

Never mind the consequences of the crime this time 

My fortune faded 



(Instrumental Bridge) 



Come on God, do I seem bulletproof? 



So divine, hell of an elevator 

All the while my fortune faded 

Never mind the consequences of the crime this time 

My fortune faded x2

It's ok...meh.

note to rawker:

this song did not "make it" to the GH - for that to happen it must have been on another album. it is merely an extra song added to lure consumers to buy another cd with primarily old songs that are available on the cds we've all already paid for.

It was on By the Way, so it was on another CD. I guess I don't understand what you're saying, but that's okay because you have 1 post and you probably won't be reading this.

Unlike the other people who commented on this, I think it's one of their best recent songs. It's got a great melody, (it's catchy!) but it is too short. Good idea to put it on the Greatest Hits album.

Good song, but not as good as scare tissue, or give it away, you feel that they`ve gone really mainstream. Could do better, but good one. Cheers

yo all of you people are nothing but haters while its true that this song is difrent from the typival red hot chili peppers that we all grew to love and this is a little difrent in style they put aside a little the funk and gave typical alternative rock with more distortion a try stil the skills of john frusciante chad smith and michael balzary(flea) and the voice of anthony keidis is undisputable and they remain one of the best groups of all time also the song is pretty good i guess the zephyr song should have been on the greatist hits but i would have preferd to replace save the population with the zephyr song not fourtune faded[topic=]

I love this song. I still prefer some of their older stuff but I actually think it's better than a lot of the songs on by the way
