[Verse 1: Geoff Tate] The writing's on the wall Will you go on and fool yourself? In no time, you’ll be done Refusing to adjust yourself to the flow Why walk the stony road? You won't get out alive [Verse 2] Nobody understands it, do you? Come in and look around: Every single stroke, they say Was worth the pain Now, in this gallery of wonder You wonder what it's all about Well, selling sun in the rain! [Pre-Chorus: Tobias Sammet] We’re gonna give them bite-sized harmony Oh, we're gonna shove it down their throats [Chorus: Geoff Tate] Dreams and fire, we are alchemy You set out on the losing end Gonna make you whole again Waste to diamonds, we are alchemy No one to be left in need We're gilding their reality [Verse 3: Tobias Sammet] We gotta keep 'em dancing While tears pour out of blackened skies Another shade of drama Spectators weeping over cries That broken heroes Drag from crazy minds And by the way, now: [Verse 4: Both] They who pay the piper call the tune at last [Tobias Sammet] Knowing what you wanna give And what is gonna do Feeding on desire The spectres shall arise Right in front of their eyes [Pre-Chorus: Geoff Tate] We're gonna give them perfect harmony Oh, we're gonna shove it down their throats [Chorus: Both] Dreams and fire, we are alchemy You set out on the losing end Gonna make you whole again Waste to diamonds, we are alchemy No one to be left in need We're gilding their reality [Bridge: Geoff Tate and Tobias Sammet] We'd never lie We’re never, ever gonna let you down (Let you down) When danger and distraction lie in wait We’d never lie When dreams aspire to take you down (Take you down) We' never dare to lie to you You’re just spared the part of truth That doesn't make any sense to you... [Guitar Solo] [Chorus: Tobias Sammet] Dreams and fire, we are alchemy You set out on the losing end Gonna make you whole again Waste to diamonds, we are alchemy [Outro] No one's to be left in need A new take on reality
