One, two One, two, three Into problematical darkness Of an arcane world I rode On the back of a worm called "Icondeath" As it had been foretold Where the lava flows over the plains Austere with heat and black A valley of the bones Where people go And don't come back Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God It don't come easy I said, "Wizard, you be kind now I'm in need of some advice And talk no speak of majick blood Or good-son sacrifice." And I begged to know if justice were a form far-out or in He said, "Son, there is no justice There's just what And that just is." Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God It don't come easy At the marketplace of souls I gave my only silver piece And I traded it for a mania Chemical urgency And then I staggered into ergs Where the wind blows without relent And I still don't know what living cost But I can tell you what I spent Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God It don't come easy Weren't it you who pierced the dragon? Weren't it you who led us out Of a land so damn oppressive Against hope and with great doubt? Did we not amble out of Egypt Into a wilderness so dry? Weren't there graves enough in Memphis That we've been brought here to die? Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God It don't come easy Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God God, go easy
