Closet Chronicles - Kansas[00:00:01]

Once carried through the current[00:00:06]

And been swept away[00:00:10]

The king is in the closet[00:00:13]

He's hiding from today[00:00:16]

And though he owns all fortunes[00:00:19]

This is where he'll stay[00:00:22]

And his world is filled with darkness[00:00:25]

Turning grey[00:00:27]

Gazing out the window[00:00:31]

Of the 42nd floor[00:00:34]

He is separate from all others[00:00:37]

No one knocks upon his door[00:00:39]

And it might as well be raining[00:00:42]

Cuz the sunlight hurts his eyes[00:00:45]

And his ears will never hear the children's cries[00:00:48]

Once proud and full of passion[00:00:54]

He fought the cause of man[00:00:57]

Many people loved his courage[00:01:00]

Many followed his command[00:01:02]

He changed the old into the new[00:01:05]

And the course of things to come[00:01:08]

And then one day they noticed[00:01:10]

He was gone[00:01:13]

At first it didn't matter[00:01:17]

Nobody seemed to care[00:01:19]

They all became too busy[00:01:22]

To find him anywhere[00:01:25]

So no one knew not even him[00:01:28]

The problems he would find[00:01:31]

On the day he journeyed deep into his mind[00:01:34]

I close my eyes I go far away[00:01:40]

Away from the battlefield[00:01:43]

In my dreams well here I will enjoy it[00:01:46]

Where innocence plays with all the laughing children[00:01:52]

The kind who are crying right now[00:01:58]

A taste of freedom from the pain[00:02:04]

Of everything here i see[00:02:07]

Life is sweet but I took it all for granted[00:02:10]

And now i don't know if i can ever tell you[00:02:16]

Just what we permit we allow[00:02:22]

Allow me to forget the life[00:02:28]

I've made my own[00:02:31]

I've held this nation in my hand and yet it's not my home[00:02:33]

Oh [00:02:39]

Allow me just one answer and one reason why[00:02:40]

Why this refugee of the family of man must die[00:02:44]

Tell me why[00:02:50]

Daydreams filled his nighttimes[00:05:10]

And night dreams filled his days[00:05:13]

Confusion and uncertainty[00:05:16]

A puzzled mind of haze[00:05:18]

You thought he was so powerful[00:05:21]

And set upon his ways[00:05:24]

Well he left us all to travel through his maze[00:05:27]

I heard the king was dying[00:05:33]

I heard the king was dead[00:05:35]

And with him died the chronicles[00:05:38]

That no one ever read[00:05:41]

The closet's fully empty now[00:05:44]

Its occupied by none[00:05:47]

I'll draw the drapes now destiny is done[00:05:50]
