Analysis of Die Another Day
The Dark Armed Dragon
Leaving in ruins everything it's past
Mourning and wailing
It's trail, 'tis true, the dragon was here
Invaded
To take one untimely, the beast
Doesn't heed petitions nor pleas
As it creeps with a sneer
With arms we charge
Yet it prevails, with ways so arcane
Again leaves it trail
Scornfully exists as it came
Time heals
We learn to live with the odds
But our hearts still long
For that one the beast took away
Our wishes, our thoughts
Two more decades, we'd be glad
If only he had
To Die Another Day
