Blinded by Royalty

As the King lay awake at night

visions pass his mind

He chuckles at his glamourous life

 and those he's left behind

But his stepping stones are growing weak 

and his path no longer wide

Still He ponders his many victories

 as his grip begins to slide

The servant sees beyond the eye

 deep within the king

He fishes for the missing clue

 with every song he sings

He knows his path to steal the reign

 is difficult as conspired

Dormant he waits patiently

for the kings time to expire

The queen is blinded by her jewels 

 and beauty for all to see

Idol, she's lost inside her mirror

numb to reality

But time will catch her very soon 

age will then destroy

For she falls for all the joker's tricks

 submitting as his toy

Their castle and the legacy 

shall come crashing to an end

That vision of immortality 

is not human to comprehend

The age for them is growing old

the flesh is getting weak

All they've gained are worldly treasures

which eternally will not speak
