Curse the man, curse the prophet, worse the man without
any eyes
Play the madman, play the poet, some say he hides in a
perfect disguise
Less the man that heads no warning, and lets the sand run
through his hands
His fi ngers stiff with anticipation, as he plots his
next feeble plan
Beyond all reason, he holds the key to life
A change of season, all answers in due time
No rhyme or reason, a product of mankind
But he's not the only one, he's just the lonely one
Since ancient times we've bowed to leaders, leaders only
by their command
Banned together a bond of freedom, from their rule and
master plan
Take the greed, take the power, hold the ring within your
hand
Seize the crown and wield the dagger, it's the path of
every man
Slipping through the cracks of the system we have made,
staring at life as we fall
Remembering places and pictures in time, surprised that
we have made it at all
Looking for heroes and praying to gods, uttering secrets
we keep
Hope for redemption and someone to blame, the price that
we pay is too steep
