Here, on the slab I awake
|
And I'm freezing
|
There is a light up ahead
|
And I rise and float through the air
|
Through a tunnel
|
Now the light's up ahead
|
|
Here, in a bullring I stand
|
Am I dreaming?
|
There is a bull up ahead
|
And I laugh, 'Ha ha ha'
|
I get it, I'm dead
|
And this whole charade's
|
A fight for my soul
|
Red-eyed fiend
|
Lunges I turn while
|
Skeletal picadores
|
Stab away at the beast
|
|
I lay, I lay, I lay, I lay
|
I lay my eyes on the Devil
|
Oh fate, once again I lay
|
I lay, I lay, I lay
|
|
There in the stands something grabs
|
My attention
|
Like it is calling to me
|
It's a girl with eyes like the sea
|
Is she an angel sent to watch over me?
|
|
I lay, I lay, I lay, I lay
|
I lay my eyes on the Devil
|
Oh fate, once again I lay
|
I lay, I lay, I lay
|
|
Suddenly I remember
|
The girl with eyes like the sea
|
I turn, she winks and she smiles gently
|
While the bull runs straight into me
|
|
I lay, I lay, I lay, I lay
|
I lay my eyes on the Devil
|
'Blue-eyed matador', I cried
|
I fell for your wicked disguise
|
