The Pinnacle
I have so much to say
Yet I cannot speak
Come undo my bidding now
For I have grown too weak
My weary eyes have seen
All that life can give
Come to me, oh 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 the 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 saw the offering you bring
The mark of pain is on our faces
Worn and suffering
Oh I long to hear you say it's not been wrong
I stand before you now
The riddle in my song
The answer is that sweet refrain
Unheard it always will remain
Beyond the reach, beyond the gain
Trapped in life's charade
A king without a crown
In this joy of madness
My smile might seem a frown
With talons rod 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 den I rose
Life is amusing
Though we are losing
Drowned in tears of awe
