You are the snake
Dancing till you lose your skins
Dressed in red
Passionate and intemperate
Eternal soul charmed among the waves
Waiting for times to come
You've got to promise yourself
Never, never to forget

What should you have been?
What have you become?
What is that you in yourself?
Your life will always be
On someone else's hands
Shifting and swaying
Twirling and tumbling
Falling to crawl up again

Loads of passion
The more you know sadder you get
The flame burns harder
How long will you bet?
How many lives does it take to grow wiser?
Struggling for times to come
