The art of alchemy

from Hybris by After Dusk

/

lyrics

The more I wanna see my spirit to be free
There he is confusing things
Cutting every bit of me
Wants to destroy what he doesn’t like,
but even the rest
He twists them to be in his image
Until I won’t recognize myself

He tries to break me, scavenger of my soul
He tries to make me, change art into gold

But I remember bands,
he couldn’t alter or force at all
He tried to bury only to fail,
their meeting with the world
Still alone he is in charge
His greed one day will swallow him
I chose the difficult path
But time will lead me ahead of him

He tries to break me, scavenger of my soul
He tries to make me, change art into gold
He tries to deceive me
I’ m not a rat to lead with your pipe
You’re an alchemist
Burring gold and selling led

I tell you this asshole, won’t play it your way
And I’m pretty sure you don’t like what I say
As long as you keep on choosing
people’s directions
Someone will be there, shaking your ground
