The Limelight Fades Away |
Sleight of hand, a twist of fate |
A story told by the cards in play |
Kings and Queens, and Aces Four |
Timeless secrets from days of yore |
Praise from the crown as he takes his bow |
The jesters alone when the lights go down |
He’s suffering in silence |
Can the magical spell be broken? |
The limelight fades away |
You disappear in a grand illusion |
Whatever game you play |
Your fate will lie in a fool’s delusion |
And now your gag is done |
The limelight fades away |
An ageless art, the modern age |
Timeless trade on a glitzy stage |
Prying eyes that you deplore |
The one reveal you can’t afford |
Every move is so controlled |
Never the secret can be told |
The burden is precious |
And the vow remains unbroken |
The limelight fades away |
You disappear in a grand illusion |
Whatever game you play |
Your fate will lie in a fool’s delusion |
You’re gonna cease to be |
Step right up, it’s amazing |
Feast your eyes on the stage |
Watch the man right before you |
Vanish in a mystical haze |
The limelight fades away |
You disappear in a grand illusion |
Whatever game you play |
Your fate will lie in a fool’s delusion |
When the glow dies down |
Is there salvation found? |
It’s coming down, down, down… |
