Well I know the clock,
And I know the stone
And I've seen the cinders of truth
And I know your ways,
You ancient snake
And I know your plans for us all

And you drank that bitter cup
You swallowed it down
And it turned you inside-out
It turned you around, around...

Well you opened your eyes
On the black rain
And it swam through your eyes
'Till it reached your brain
And you had to think
I'll do this one thing

And you drank that bitter cup
You swallowed it down
And it turned you inside-out
It turned you around, around...

And you drank that bitter cup
You swallowed it down
And it turned you inside-out
It turned you around, around...
