Alchemy
As the days grow short, we both grow old
I feel there's much fulfillment to unfold
The perfection of an unperfected soul
I'll take your lead
You take my lead and turn it into gold
Alchemy all for you
Please turn me into something new
It's a natural philosophy
All my matter altared unto thee
Alchemy all for you
There are no things we can't undo
I have heaved my wretched way through some mirror-heavy mining
Hunting hidden gold in midst of silver-leaded lining
The elemental essence of nobility lingers
Just filter out the fragments with your Midas finger
Free virtue from the vulgar, melt with fire to refine
There's nature and there's nurture and there's beauty laid behind
Magnificent the magic, this unseeable seed
That someday soon will sprout and silently hold a hardy tree
Alchemy all for you
And my perfection will debut
Alter me, if you do
It's alchemy and it's all for you
I feel there's much fulfillment to unfold
The perfection of an unperfected soul
I'll take your lead
You take my lead and turn it into gold
Alchemy all for you
Please turn me into something new
It's a natural philosophy
All my matter altared unto thee
Alchemy all for you
There are no things we can't undo
I have heaved my wretched way through some mirror-heavy mining
Hunting hidden gold in midst of silver-leaded lining
The elemental essence of nobility lingers
Just filter out the fragments with your Midas finger
Free virtue from the vulgar, melt with fire to refine
There's nature and there's nurture and there's beauty laid behind
Magnificent the magic, this unseeable seed
That someday soon will sprout and silently hold a hardy tree
Alchemy all for you
And my perfection will debut
Alter me, if you do
It's alchemy and it's all for you
