Usurper -

King… you sold your soul

King… many years ago

Whatever happened to the finery

Whatever happened to you and me

Flat foot fallen, stumbled stride, time has now revealed

Unsafe footfalls, poison ground, what a steal, what a steal.

Push back the hours, hold back the days

Stop the Merry-go-round

All your confidants turn away

Faith lies lost not found

Believe it when I show, show to you

All the hurt we have found

Come the morning, come, come the day

We will have your crown

King… you were so wrong

Were you the catalyst, the chosen one

Don’t believe the flattery, just believe in treachery

Now the silence, now deceived, all wil be revealed

Place no trust in what you’ve seen, or signed or sealed…

King… your smile has died

The man I knew, I can’t recognise

The tears, the silence, the fear in your mind

To the pain you were so blind

Now the party comes to an end, the actor leaves the stage

All your hopes and all your dreams are sealed

Within this cage
