Julian Casablancas
Prophecy of the Dragon
[Verse 1]
Mirror, mirror on the wall (Uh-huh)
I can't do this anymore
Late December, all alone (Uh-huh)
Won't get to watch my children grow

[Verse 2]
I'm busy, busy, I'm feeling f— dizzy
East Berlin, taste the fucking decadence
I used to be a lounge lizard
Now look at me, I'm a wizard

[Chorus]
Arms in chains, walls of lead
To collect, here come the dead
It's too late, too late
Consequence, prove it, son
Words don't count for anyone
You're always on my mind

[Verse 3]
Lotus Sutra, kept it safe
Secret teachings we await
Now the snake king guards thе truth
Until we are preparеd
["Incomprehensible enlightenment wordz beyond our comprehension"]

[Chorus]
I wait for you
Like a beast in a zoo
So long, so long
Consequence, prove it, son
Words don't count for anyone
You're always on my mind

[Bridge]
Beware, I treat you with respect
I swear, walk out, I leave you fucking dead

[Verse 4]
Dissention, mind your business, perception
Embodies the void, perfection
Ancient symbols, hidden knowledge
Dragon will unleash himself
Listen closely all will be
Enlightened as a consequence

[Outro]
(Ohm, ohm, I try, I try, ohm)
I wait for you
Like a beast in a zoo
Almost like a dream
I can hear neon waves
From inside my neon cave
Here comes the flood
