Midas Touch Songtext
von Pallas

I see banners flying in the wind
Our darkest demons rising from the flames again
Black wings of terror blocking out the sun
Just one more battle then our golden age may come

No turning back, there′s no running away
We never wanted, wanted it to be this way
With good intentions we achieved so much
Then we take a sip from the poisoned cup
Midas touch
We got the Midas touch

I see glass towers rising to the sky
Down in their shadows the last red rose has died
Awesome machines drink our mother's blood
Mercury′s rising, Lord, here comes the flood


No turning back, there's no running away
We never wanted, wanted it to be this way
Losing everything, achieving so much
Take a sip from the poisoned cup
Midas touch
We got the Midas touch
Midas touch
We got the Midas touch

Take a touch of the human spirit
Then pressurize it to the limit
Stir in greed and desire
Turn the temperature higher
Higher
Higher
Higher and higher and higher

Iron is the wealth that knows no fear
Lead is the greed that blinds us
Sulphur is the evil that lies in us all
Tin are the gods that guide us
Carbon gives us strength to conquer hate
Silver is the purest love that binds us
Gold is the power lust that divides us
If I could do magic I'd weave a spell
If I could do magic I′d weave a spell

If I could do magic, I′d bring you the spell
If I could do magic, I'd bring you the spell
