I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemies eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the King!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
Find a way
A way to be
You're looking down again
Just let it be
And I'd only do for you what you'd do for me
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me
Wasting time like it was free
Will you ever find where you'll be?
And I'd only do for you what you do for me
And I only would do for you what you'd do for me...
If you want to play it like a game
Well, come on, come on, let's play
Cause I'd rather waste my life pretending
Than have to forget you for one whole minute
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
You little spies
Know who you are
Know where you're going to
Read a new book
Finish the other one
Right from the start try and
Work out the finishing answer
I know what nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know its everybody’s sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life is in books written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know its true
All the things come back to you
You're always hiding behind your so-called goddess
So what? You don't think that we can see your face?
Resurrected back before the final falling
I'll never rest until I can make my own way
I'm not afraid of fading
Now I see the times they change
Leaving us, it seems so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?
I'd catch the cues,
Watching you,
Hoping you'd do something wrong.
Everybody thinks you'll never make it,
But every time,
You escape:
'Rosabel believe,
Not even eternity
Can hold Houdini!'
I’m the lord of the wastelands
A modern day man of steel
I gather darkness to please me
And I command you to kneel before the
God of Thunder
And rock ‘n roll
The spell you’re under
Will slowly rob you of your virgin soul
Oh let the sun beat down upon my face
Stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space
To be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait
And all will be revealed
All preordained
A prisoner in chains
A victim of venomous fate
Kicked in the face
You can't pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill
I bought a novel, some perfume
A fortune all for you
But it’s not my conscience
That hates to be untrue
I asked of my reflection
Tell me what is there to do
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
What’s been going on
Now that you have gone
There’s no other
Tempted by the fruit of another
Tempted but the truth is discovered
