The Alchemist

歌詞

I have seen great kingdoms I've seen them rise and fall I am a thousand years old Maybe a thousand more The story's now forgotten The paper's long gone dried The ashes of the magician Are spread with the wind and fire I am not afraid of my own blood I can share with you so much more Stable and balanced, I am here Breathing in, breathing out Sometimes I wish that I was back in Babylon Drinking wine with nostalgia A blessed disease I'd laugh at you dementia I can blow your mind I can blow your mind The trees so stark, shake like leaves The garden is under siege The storm cries, war lieutenant speaks This holy man, the alchemist I can blow your mind I can blow your mind Put a word in my mouth And watch me swallow Dig a hole into the ground The funeral orchestra Slow down, your pace is high Brutalized by one man's hate Slow down, kill his love Retribute, retribution I'm back again with perspective eyes Deception still lingers on But I am not one to categorize I'm a free man on my own Looking back upon the disrespect Next time I'm ready to fight Unlike a soldier in a battlefield I'll pull my horses back and leave
