Shadows of the Past Lyrics

The cracked illusion splinters sunlight
back into the sky
A myriad golden colours echo dreams
of times gone by
Until a blind man passing by
tramples on the remnants of
the shadows of the past
As the dream fades,the queen of spades
starts to smile
The joker dances before the court
for a while
The king resplendent in his robes
sits majestically on the throne
as the night hides another lonely cry
Unknowing the blind man travels on
Oblivious of the damage done
Not noticing the the shimmering reflections
slowly die
as the night hides another lonely cry
