Lyrics

The heat has a taste It tastes like a flame You drink up the flame, and it burns your flesh away And in the city of clouds You're just a face in the crowd But you take up your place And you throw yourself away Everyday of your life Well, take a breath, and take a seat, and take your medicine Close your eyes, and cauterize the wound you're 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, and the days go by and the nights all feel the same And the beast in your eyes slowly becomes tame Someday you will change Hey hey hey hey 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 and dim Someday never comes Ooh! The snake strikes To give Life! (Live, extended ending): The sutra is clarified, the Serpent it strikes The tail is its target in the circle it bites
