## The White Dragon of the Night ### [Verse 1] A white dragon in the night Tore the sky apart His blue eyes of lapis lazuli Were throwing sparks of light His black wings, the color of soot Sliced right through the horizon And in one immense cry He screamed out my name His razor-sharp claws And his great white teeth Held the Milky Way By a single one of its sleeves The immense creature Come from another time Seemed to see the future The past and present Through a simple crack Torn into the wall His eyes stared at the thin veil of a simple cloth... ### [Chorus] Where stars lay sleeping Forever unknown. ### [Verse 2] A bright red crest Wrapped around his chest And a tree named yew Lay fallen in the battle "O great dragon of the night Let us finally make peace Let us become great friends" ### [Bridge] But the dragon spat From his wide-open jaws Incandescent flames Then everything caught fire The hills were left deserted No blackbird sang anymore ### [Outro] Here is, my good people The moral of the story: The man who, before the monster, begs for an alliance Learns to his own cost, in the midst of the blaze, That one cannot bind the storm to the silence, Nor force the giants to let themselves be swayed.
