"Alchemy" lyrics

(Aaah)
(Aaah)

How many zeroes does it take
To make the bread and have the cake
Why do they [?] cross the line
To keep him satisfied

How many towers can you buy
To live with gods up in the sky
And if you dare to ask him
Then he'll buy the question why

Bow to the capital
Can't be wicked if it makes me whole
What's wrong with complete control
It's better from the balcony
How high can one pile grow
Pack the trinkets with you when you go
Gold will only turn to coal
What's the opposite of alchemy

Chase the glitter
Far down the river
Green is the root
Oh my God you're a sinner
Lord deliver
This man afire
Sold his soul
To the world's highest buyer

How many banquets can you eat
Before you've had your fill of meat
When did the X mark the spot
Where everybody rots

And if you listen closely
Put your ear up to the tower
Hear the voices of the people with the power say

Bow to the capital
Stash the riches in the black, black hole
What's wrong with complete control
It's better from the balcony
How high can one pile grow
Pack the trinkets with you when you go
Gold will only turn to coal
What's the opposite of alchemy

Chase the glitter
Far down the river
Green is the root
Oh my God you're a sinner
Lord deliver
This man afire
Sold his soul
To the world's highest buyer
