THE HERO AND THE MADMAN

THE HERO AND THE MADMAN

The Hero, rode a white horse,
Across the desert to where his woman was.
He'd been riding for four days
When he saw the tower where she was locked.
In the moonlight,
He left his old steed near the drawbridge,
That he crossed, and by way of a rope ladder
He tippy toed, to where his woman was.

If I recall, you're the actor who followed the stars
Searching for the Lost City of Mars,
Hoping time could heal the scars
Knowing fate held no bars.
And those that knew you always said that you'd go far.
Are you the one, I think you are?
Are you the hero or are you the madman ?

The madman climbed the steeple spire.
"Go higher, go higher" said the crowd from down below.
"But......the world's on fire" cried the madman from the steeple spire
"You're a liar,you're a liar" said the crowd from down below.
So, the madman climbed the steeple spire,
And let a crystal ball tear, fall on the crowd down below.


If I recall you're the actor, who took to the stage,
And set the world ablaze with your anger and your rage.
With every new leaf, you turned and wrote a new page,
Cleverly concealing your real age.
And those that knew you were always quite amazed
Are you the one that can take this praise ?


"You're the only one that can save us" cried the Wizard
"Or all is lost."
