trapped behind the walls of lies
constructed by false pride
i am the only fool
that thinks he holds the answers
to questions never known
a call is made without connection
staring at my own reflection
and i wonder
how many things i still can't change
i'm looking at the shadows
leaving in the mist
eyes unlock with passing lights
that shine through the darkness
i called home
now and here i search myself
nowhere to be found
among the falls of reconception
ashes rain
an early dusk
sunset in the morning
give me life and call me forth
on ordinary stories
from lives lived long ago
then i decide to drop my mask
play more than just my role
make me what i've always been
at least a king of fools
