Lyrics for In Times of Dragons
Where am I? Where am I? Backed into a CORNER I know that I'm changing Once I was beauty, am I now the beast? He would have me believe That he's the dark enlightenment And he will hunt me down He's out for blood I am on the run now Out of Swampy and this lizard demon And his sadistic companions Their neo-revolution, their annihilation They want the suffering, suffering Of him and me Secrets pulling on my heartstrings Wish that I were dreaming Shocking this is happening In these end times of dragons If you were to see me Would you turn away, away from me? Faith and strength I'm questioning Faith and strength I'm questioning Backed into memories I'm going back decades now A different lover He taught me things Think less of crucifixion More of resurrection A revelation He was for me Then we had a daughter, a damn good father When did greed suck me in to luxury? The scale of dismantling Years in the making By these lizard kings Will we survive? Secrets weighing on my heartstrings Wish that I were dreaming Shocking this is happening So raw, written on my body Tearing through my skin Am I paying for those finer things? In these end times of dragons If you were to see me Would you turn away, away from me? Faith and strength I'm questioning Faith and strength I'm questioning Faith and strength I'm questioning Faith and strength I'm questioning
