Madman Or Messiah

(álbum: The Serpent Rings - 2020)

When you were born you never had a thing
Out in the cold unforgettable
Hold your silver cross not to sympathise
Play the music soft and close your eyes
You'd be a rich man or you'd be a fool
Heart full of gold so incredible

Out of time still locked in anger

Madman or messiah
If he gets inside of your head
That house of desire
Be careful you might get misled
Shotgun Boulevard
No diamonds or kings
Beware the schoolyard
I guess that's the place it begins

I don't know if it's a gift or a curse
Nobody sees it's impossible
Get down on your knees, wash away the blood
Cheating the disease will do you good
You might be crying on the streets alone
Walk through the crowd quite invisible

Out of time still locked in anger

Madman or messiah
If he gets inside of your head
That house of desire
Be careful you might get misled
Shotgun Boulevard
No diamonds or kings
Beware the schoolyard
I guess that's the place it begins

Shame
Maybe there'll come a day
That won't hold you down
The green light is on
The unspoken words
That you should have said
Forever return
And return

Madman or messiah
If he gets inside of your head
That house of desire
Be careful you might get misled
Shotgun Boulevard
No diamonds or kings
Beware the schoolyard
I guess that's the place it begins
