Bony promises give up their cores And snakeheaded kings get intoxicated of blood And once again the old weary world will get its scarred dawn The green sun stumbles up into the sky In derelict streets resounds a crazy rhyme The faceless guys are making love to their ladies As in the shadows bats are disemboweling their prey And once again the old weary world will get its scarred dawn Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.
