The Alchemist Lyrics

The curse of time is just getting older, so try to live life while your able

I never know what hand to fold or what cards to leave on the table

Why try, it's just getting worse

My loneliness feels like a curse

Slowly I sacrifice youth on my serpentine path to find truth

I've always been best on my own but yearn to find someone to hold

Past omens and memories have shown I'm trying to turn rust into gold

Rust into gold

I'm trying to turn rust into gold

Some days will pass in an instant; some nights an eternity

I slowly succumb to the torment of encroaching insanity

All I want is just a moment to show this world what I can do; to find me a worthy opponent and let destiny's course follow through

I've always been best on my own but yearn to find someone to hold

Past omens and memories have shown I'm trying to turn rust into gold

Rust into gold

I'm trying to turn rust into gold

I've always been best on my own but yearn to find someone to hold

Past omens and memories have shown I'm trying to turn rust into gold

I've never been one to hold on, hoping fortune will favor the bold

All I can do is move along, while trying to turn rust into gold

Rust into gold

I'm trying to turn rust into gold

Rust into gold

Rust into gold

I'm trying to turn rust into gold

Rust into gold

Rust into gold

I'm trying to turn rust into gold

Rust into gold

Rust into gold

I'm trying to turn rust into gold
