The Pinnacle

歌詞

I've so much to say and yet I cannot speak Come and do my bidding now for I have grown too weak My weary eyes have seen all that life can give Come to me, O young one for you I can forgive I stood where no man goes and conquered demon foes With glory and passion no longer in fashion The hero breaks his blade Cast this shadow long that I may hide my face And in this cloak of darkness the world I will embrace In all that I endure of one thing I am sure Knowledge and reason change like the season A jester's promenade Lying at my feet I see the offering you bring The mark of Cain is on our faces borne of suffering O, I long to hear you say it's not been wrong I stand before you now a riddle in my song The answer is that sweet refrain Unheard it always will remain Beyond our reach beyond our gain Trapped in life's parade a king without a crown In this joy of madness my smile might seem a frown With talons wrought of steel I tore the heart of doom And in one gleaming moment I saw beyond the tomb I stood where no man goes above the din I rose Life is amusing though we are losing Drowned in tears of awe
