Come into this world
Empty
Depart from this world
Empty
You are all drunk
Yet none is thirsty
Serpent King
The power of life
Give me your heart
I’ll give you the world
Shedding skin
Throw off the past
Damn the soul
That depends on the flesh
He who drinks from my mouth
Will become as I am
And I shall be he
Give the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor
Give God what belongs to God
And give me what is mine
What goes into your mouth
Won't defile you
What comes out of your mouth
Will destroy you
I am the Serpent King
The power of life
Give me your heart
I’ll give you the world
Shedding skin
Throw off the past
Damn the soul
That depends on the flesh
He who drinks from my mouth
Will become as I am
And I shall be he
I will give you what no eye has seen
What no ear has heard
What no hand can touch
A Slave with two masters
Will honor one
Offend the other
Give the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor
Give God what belongs to God
Give me what is mine
We are the consciousness of the Earth
All is one and know one’s worth
If flesh came into being
Because of spirit
Or the other way around
It is all a marvel
Yet I marvel at how this great wealth
Has come to dwell in such poverty
We are the consciousness of the Earth
Since Mother Gaia gave us birth
Guarding gold he can not use
Lonely virgins he can’t abuse
Your Dragon is huge indeed
He is your greed, your lust, your need
Slay the Dragon
He’s holding you down
And your Serpent
Will make a sound
Exit Dragon Enter Snake
In this game of life
You better stay awake
You taught me so many lessons but you have forgotten
Them all
Forgotten
Therefore- the Fall
Forgotten
Your call
Forgotten
That to you I’m in thrall
You taught me so many lessons that you have forgotten
We come into this world
Empty
Depart from this world
Empty
We are all drunk
Yet none is thirsty
Forgotten
Us all
Forgotten
Therefore we fall
What goes into your mouth
Won't defile you
What comes out of your mouth
Will destroy you
Forgotten
Us all
Forgotten
Therefore I crawl
Forgotten
The fall
Forgotten
You're all
You taught me so many lessons that you have forgotten
Forgotten
Forgotten
Forgive, not forget
You don’t give, you don’t get
Once two mountains have met
Your story was set
You better play dead
To yourself in the head
At night in our bed
Endless tears will be shed
You taught me so many lessons that you have forgotten
