The heat has a taste...
It tastes like a flame.
You drink up the flame,
and it burns your flesh away.

And in a city of clouds
you're just a face in the crowd.
But you take up your place,
and you throw yourself away

every day...
of your life.

Well, take a breath,
and take a seed,
and take your medicine.

Close your eyes,
and cauterize
the wound your opening.

Well all these lives that make no sense,
all along we cry in our defense.

And all of us go down slow,
and then we rise again.
And just like a tide on the sea,
we lower and rise again.

Well then the days go by,
and the nights all feel the same.

And the beast in your eyes
slowly becomes tame.

Someday you will change.

This world has gone and
drug us along and
nothing's the same,
and it will never be again.

It's never gonna be the same.

And all these lives that make no sense,
all along we cry in our defense.

All of us go down slow,
then we rise again.
But just like the tide on the sea,
we lower and rise again,
and again I said,
the days go by
and the nights all feel the same.
And the beast in your eyes
slowly becomes tame again.

Someday never comes.

The snake strikes

to give...

life.
