I see myself from many angles This room has got so many mirrors I am among an alphabet of angels But nothing is at it appears (Come to-) Oh, alchemy Take away the agony (Before I disappear) Oh, alchemy Take away the misery I made for me I am possessed of twin opinions Each one lies heavy on my chest I peel away at them like onion skins And they continue to coexist When I am sensible and settled I like to try a wishing well But when I am full of heavy metal once again All the pride inside me would give'em hell (Come to-) Oh, alchemy Take away the agony (Before I disappear) Oh, alchemy Take away the misery I made for me Heavy metal, well it gets inside No matter how decisively or nice you slice It insinuates till the driest ice Has taken every synapse for it's own devices Throat is coated with these frozen crystals Notes you hold are only broken whistles Slick as sequins are the icicles glistening I think his kisses were sick as strychnine Oh, alchemy Take away the agony (Before I disappear) Oh, alchemy Take away the misery I made for me
