Imposture! At the peak of my triumphant march Conjuration! Doubt befalls me so close to the end. Cannot move any further Feet are tired from the haste So close to the finale I desperately need to rest Face to face with the very substance of my journey Just need to reach out and grab the gold Take the crown and be king for a lifetime But in the hour that I longed for At the vertex of my crave Just when I thought I had broken free Im even deeper inside the maze But I dont feel lost anymore Somehow I do not feel astray Somehow I m not the same as before Maybe Ive grown wiser on the way So I write this down for you to know Ive been here Tired, torn and stripped down to the core And that Im not the same as yesterday Maybe Ive grown wiser on the way Thus, I write all this down for you to know Ive been here Close enough to almost feel your breath Write this down for you to know Ive slept the sleep of restless hours And when I woke, I left with the promise I would be back Fool, Me! Swimming in the burning sea. Fool, me! I have seen the careless me! And I dont feel lost anymore. Somehow, I do not feel astray. Somehow, Im not the same as before. Maybe Ive just grown wiser on the way. Thus, I write all this down for you to know Ive been here Close enough to almost feel your breath Write this down for you to know Ive slept the sleep of restless hours And when I woke, I left knowing I would be back.
