Brandon Boyd - Dance While the Devil Sleeps lyrics
[Brandon Boyd - Dance While the Devil Sleeps lyrics]
The rain washes away
The blackened soil in the distance
Process starts over again
Near the pyres the women weep
Their tears hiss in the flames
And in the smoke there's a signal
For their sons and daughters to
Take cover
Unless you are on the right side of the fire
But who is right? Where is wrong?
This koan, it's easier said than done
A lonely mariner dreamt a little dream
Where in it he was the subject
Of an old song lamenting the sea
"Keep eyes on winds and tides
Neither good, bad, right or wrong
There is a storm ahead in the distance
Tell the stowaways to
Take cover
Unless you are on the right side of the fire
But who is right? Where is wrong?
This koan, it's easier said than done"
Oh, said than done oh, said than done
Oh, said than done
Dance while the devil sleeps
After fire comes the rain
Look in the smoke for a signal
