Thin Lizzy - Opium Trail lyrics

I took a line that leads you to the opium trail

Oriental eyes reveal the lies, deceit, betrayal

On this journey behold the one who travels far

You called him fool but now you are

The wizard wanders through the world we made from dreams

The splashing whirlpool drowns the frightened screams

Exotic dancers, flashing LANCES, this mysterious space

The fanfare advances, the warlord falls from grace

It clears your pain

But It's got you claimed again, my love

You feel the need but it lets you bleed

You must concede, my love

No one to blame, no shame

You crave again and again, my love

No used to plead from you

It feeds on your greed, my love

I took a line that comes from the golden states of Shan

The smugglers trail that leads you to the opium den

The Chinese connection refines to heroin

Depart the heart you crave again

It clears your pain

You soul is claimed again, my love

You feel the need, it lets you bleed

You must concede, my love

No one to blame, no shame

You crave again and again, my love

No use to plead

From you it feeds, my love
