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 the 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, You gotta kill the beast) (You gotta slay the dragon, You gotta kill the beast) Running through the night trying to feel alright And it's time you want to burn Carry all the weight of your love and hate Will the tables ever turn? Running down the road with a heavy load Trying to leave the world behind 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 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, You gotta kill the beast) (You gotta slay the dragon, You gotta kill the beast) Running through the night trying to feel alright And this time you want to burn Carry all the weight of your love and hate Will the tables ever turn? Running down the road with a heavy load Trying to leave the world behind 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 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 the fire And your pride has got you locked in the cage You gotta slay the dragon You gotta kill the beast You gotta slay the dragon You gotta kill the beast
