When I saw her cursed
Muddy and confused
Asking to return
To that bygone foggy view

Dust falls to the ground
Showing who we are
The lie will always fall
For peace or for war

All the famine of good songs
Has led her to believe
That her name and face belong
To another deck of cards

All the Village Fifty Two
Says the Madman Myth is true
How couldn't be?

Everybody fears the fool
And up to now she has no clue
The Joker is me

I've been here alone
For so many years
Waiting for someone
To bring me back my tears

When I lost myself
All the music's gone
Now somebody else
Is raising up my tone

And I know she needs my songs
As I need her sympathy
This combination seems so strong
But I don't know if she will see

'Cause all the Village Fifty Two
Says the Madman Myth is true
How couldn't be?

Everybody fears the fool
And up to now she has no clue
The Joker is me

When I saw her cursed
Muddy and confused
Asking to return
To that bygone foggy view

Dust falls to the ground
Showing who we are
The lie will always fall
For peace or for war
