Portrait on the Wall |
| I was never a child at all |
| I was raised to stand as tall as father’s immemorial |
| Born to be a portrait on the wall |
| I am the race car, they’re the timer |
| I’m the firstborn, set for higher power than I care to be |
| It is not for me |
| Blue blood, bound by fate |
| Son of a steel magnate |
| Golden chains are so hard to bear… |
| Railway tracks are my life story |
| From Rome to London, I wield the glory of the gold and green |
| It should not be for me |
| Blue blood, bound by fate |
| Son of a steel magnate |
| Golden chains are so hard to bear… |
| One day I’ll revise the story |
| A door will close one final time |
| Path will be mine only to the unknown |
| One was born to rule a nation |
| To rule with fists of gold and steel |
| There will be no name or station unknown to the world |
| One night in Dublin at last |
| On the shore I hold fast to the treasure that I carry along |
| A painting that I worked on for so long |
| Blue blood, heart gone black |
| Finally not turning back |
| World of the old, it’s ending here |
| Today I’ll revise the story |
| A door will close one final time |
| This path will be mine only to the unknown |
| One was born to rule a nation |
| To rule with fists of gold and steel |
| Today will be no name or station unknown to the world… |
| (Act II: Repentance) |
| On the docks against the nightfall |
| I should take the step if I dare |
| With the painting hidden away |
| About to sail to Delaware |
| My portrait, picture of my life |
| Father’s face blended with mine |
| Destiny, it always gets you in the end of the line… |
| This will never hang on a wall |
| Down there in the ancestor’s hall |
| On the final break of a day |
| Atlantic washes me away |
| My colors away |
| (Act III: To the New World) |
| Today I’ll revise the story |
| A door will close one final time |
| This path will be mine only to the unknown |
| One was born to rule a nation |
| To rule with fists of gold and steel |
| There will be no name or station unknown to the world |
| Today I’ll revise the story |
| A door will close one final time |
| This path will be mine only to the unknown |
| One was born to rule a nation |
| To rule with fists of gold and steel |
| There will be no name or station unknown to the world, oh |
| Unknown to the world… |
