For your ears, But not your eyes. I planned it all, So true fate testifies. In time I stalled, Refused to believe, Refused to interfere, Refused to bow, Coasting through till the end that was mine, So true fate testifies. I sit in this shadowy Palace, Encased in royal doom, I feel it's a dungeon, They called it bliss, So true my past testifies. My movement ended with no move to make, So too my moment stayed, As I strayed from my appointed boom refusing to be doomed, So true fate testifies. Shackled! Refusing my end, Making lies of prophesies, I fall, Making a broken image of my once prestigious self. |
