Born of the water
Born of the flame
This life is a monster
Don't you know its name?
The house, it is wooden
The house, it is stone
The proud broken hearted
And close to the bone
Once you had a nightmare
And then it came to pass
Crazy sky in the morning
Green as the grass coverin' a grave
Just a slip away
Just a slip away
Hmm, just a slip away
Down to the water
Drawn to the flame
This life will leave you crippled
Don't you know the game?
Once you woke up choking
But then you held it down
Dry as the sand in the desert
Black as the clouds coverin' the sun
