Bruce Dickinson - The Alchemist lyrics

Wash away the blackness with the silver rain

Don't turn away, don't turn away

Wash away the blackness with the silver rain

Don't turn away, don't try to hide

Sulphurous and burning, spitting out the sun

The beginning of creation, of the golden one

A window to the west, a blazing star above

In Taurus we begin it and the ladder has begun

Don't try and blame me for your sins

For the sun has burned me black

Your hollow lives, this world in which we live

I throw it back

Four-headed dragon for the four degrees of fire

Purify the insane, bring the solution ever higher

Bring me all the elements, spread them round my head

Bring me mad men's bodies, I will break them all like bread

Don't try and blame me for your sins

For the sun has burned me black

Your hollow lives, this world in which we live

I hurl it back

Don't try and blame me for your sins

For the sun has burned me black

Your hollow lives - this world in which we live

I throw it back

Don't try and blame me for your games

Your games are death

My world is light, the angels fill my eyes

With every breath

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day

And so we lay, we lay in the same grave

Our chemical wedding day
