The Serpent Rings - Magnum

You steal what you can carry

You’re not afraid

It’s not the truth — desire you crave

In your mind

You don’t know how it works

No satisfaction and it hurts

No refuge from the landscape

You’ve lost control

You watch the emptiness unfold

Then it came

To steal your liberty

Some day they say the blind will see

Can’t wear a veil to disguise who you are

Burning the sun from your

Serpent rings on every

Finger, gold and silver

So beware if you follow that creed

The crowd all sing

Of flaming horses that run with great speed

On silent wings

Don’t take it in

Don’t take it in

Don’t take it in

I know the hangman can’t wait to begin

You walked the road forever

And paid no toll

You’ve got confusion in your soul

Baby girl

They said you’d go astray

Pay no attention all the way

When dragon clouds disappear from the sky

Mercia green stole her

Iron horse rise into

Azure and it’s over

So beware if you follow that creed

The crowd all sing

Of flaming horses that run with great speed

On silent wings

Don’t take it in

Don’t take it in

Don’t take it in

I know the hangman can’t wait to begin

Don’t take it in

Don’t take it in

Don’t take it in

Wake up tomorrow and know where you’ve been
