Hear the serpents screaming 
and know they will win 
I see the storm clouds brewing 
I feel an evil wind 
And yet I keep on dreaming 
of calm waters and us free 
I know the palace we are building 
will drown within the sea 
And so the serpent tightens 
his grip around our throat 
So soon we will be gagging 
how soon we will choke 

And yet I can't stop dreaming 
that one day we will be free 
And we will live eternal 
in our palace by the sea 
And so the serpent strangles 
so certain is our fate 
Our hands are ripped apart 
as our last breath we take 
And yet we keep on dreaming 
we dream eternally 
That we are in our palace 
our palace by the sea
