In A Mad King's Court Lyrics

I'm drunk on the laughter

My heart, it waxes black

But they painted my face and gave me a jester's hat

So, tell them to bring more wine

I'm gonna keep this party raging all night

I'm under the spell of a demon, all dressed up in white

Look at those pearls shine

I'm torn apart

Left here alone in the proverbial woods

I'm laughing through the tears

Controlling my fears, the best I can

But I sold my soul for this lackluster seat in a mad king's court

So, tell them to lock the doors

We're in this for the long haul now

Swing and sway to the music and forget your sorrows

We can just take from tomorrow

I'm blown away

Left here to rot in this proverbial grave

Let's all calm down

I gotta come down now

Get down from the tables and pick up all the cash we dropped

This place is washed up

I feel washed out

But ain't that just the curse of this existence?

You lose the knowledge and then you have to rebuild it

You forget the mistakes and you start to repeat them

Circling around the sun

The scales shift

The axis slips

The candle flame burns down

We sink down into the darkness

Lost inside the endless scape

The patterns are infinite

Everything stays the same

Everything stays the same
