Slay The Dragon Lyrics
You've got ashes on the tip of your finger
You've got secrets in the back of your mind
You've been searching for the meaning of evil
'Cause you're attracted to the darkness of life
You've been playing with the words of a liar
And you're tired of the war that you rage
You've been hanging on the edge of the fire
And your pride has got you locked in a cage
You, you got to find the peace of mind that you've been looking for
You, you got to fight to have the life that you've been searching for
You gotta' slay the dragon
Running through the night trying to feel alright
And it's time you want to burn
You gotta' kill the beast
Carry all the weight of your love and hate
Will the tables ever turn?
You gotta' slay the dragon
Running down the road with a heavy load
Trying to leave the world behind
You gotta' kill the beast
Listen to the voice 'cause you have a choice
And it's time to draw the line
When you've reached the end of the road
And you find a hole in your soul
I believe it's time to slay the beast
Slay the beast
Slay the beast
You're still counting on the change of the seasons
You've been waiting for the passage of time
While your loneliness has taken you hostage
You've been hiding in a circle of lies
You, you got to find the peace of mind that you've been looking' for
You, you got to fight to have the life that you've been searching' for
You gotta' slay the dragon
Running through the night trying to feel alright
And it's time you want to burn
You gotta' kill the beast
Carry all the weight of your love and hate
Will the tables ever turn?
You gotta' slay the dragon
Running down the road with a heavy load
Trying to leave the world behind
You gotta' kill the beast
Listen to the voice 'cause you have a choice
And it's time to draw the line
When you've reached the end of the road
And you find a hole in your soul
I believe it's time to slay the...
[solo]
You've got ashes on the tips of your fingers
You've got secrets in the back of your mind
You've been searching for the meaning of evil
'Cause you're attracted to the darkness of life
You've been playing with the words of a liar
And you're tired of the war that you rage
You've been hanging on the edge of desire
And your pride has got you locked in a cage
You gotta' slay the dragon
You gotta' slay the dragon
You gotta' kill the beast
You gotta' kill the beast
[repeat till fade]
You've got secrets in the back of your mind
You've been searching for the meaning of evil
'Cause you're attracted to the darkness of life

You've been hanging on the edge of the fire
And your pride has got you locked in a cage
You, you got to fight to have the life that you've been searching for
Running through the night trying to feel alright
And it's time you want to burn
You gotta' kill the beast
Carry all the weight of your love and hate

to me "You've got ashes on the tip of your finger" reminds me of a cave drawing so he is painting a picture for you to follow "You've got secrets in the back of your mind" I think means that we are all trying to find our own path in life and that the path we are on in is preprogrammed "You've been searching for the meaning of evil 'Cause you're attracted to the darkness of life You've been playing with the words of a liar And you're tired of the war that you rage You've been hanging on the edge of the fire And your pride has got you locked in a cage" when you find you are all alone and you can't run away anymore. you must stand up and face what is following you.
