Lyrics

I walk the line to find To see ahead I look behind And it's alright Sometimes I climb Escher stairs Never leading anywhere But it's alright From fractal to the galaxy A revolution spiraling And it's alright Sooner or later Your luck will betray you But tables will turn And you'll learn the behavior And it's alright Got your tail in your mouth And so it goes round and round It's the rule of the ring It's the kiss of the uroboros It's the secret clocks tell time One turns and the other flies And it's alright Another wheel inside a wheel Inside another you can't feel And it's alright What is lost will be found As the serpent coils round and round Now the future's the past In the grasp of the uroboros Round and round again Where the end begins Back where the beginning arrives (back where the beginning) Season cycle spins And the winter wind Turns to summer's sigh (sigh) Familiar stranger in Some eternal return (familiar stranger) Heads and tails flip (heads and tails) As fortunes turn (as fortunes turn) Got your tail in your mouth And so it goes round and round And it's the rule of the ring It's the kiss of the uroboros Now the future's the past In the grasp of the uroboros
