Lyrics
The Eagle And The Snake
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I crawl through mud and secrecy
To reach the edge of sanity
And fall... through cleansing air
Clashing down into the sea
We - between the eagle and the snake
Beyond what is real and what is fake
Between the eagle and the snake
The walls come down
Embrace the pain of this profound affliction
And yearn the sting, the serpent's tranquil kiss
Just sow and reap the gifts of liberation
To reach the shore and do it all again
It is night, now, do all leaping fountains speak louder
And my soul, too, is a leaping fountain
It is night: Only now do all songs of lovers awaken
And my soul too is the song of a lover
We - between the eagle and the snake
Beyond what is real and what is fake
Between the eagle and the snake
The walls come down
