Fading Colours - Fable

You're nobody
Though you want
To play a king
No chance to cheat
Clown's betrayed
By his face
If you'd paint
Your grief in colours
Put two sparkles in your eyes
Then you'd cast a spell and turn
Black into white
Betrayal into laughter
So don't tell me
That it's meant

To be like that
That you'll stop to amuse the world
That it isn't you any more
Look they don't believe you
They're fed up with your cliches
It was you who taught them
How to laugh at kings
Time is flying
Clown is trying to play a king
Who will animate
That sad and plastic face
You should paint your grief in colours
Put two sparkles in your eyes
Then you'd cast a spell and turn
Black into white
Betrayal into laughter...
