Closet Chronicles - Kansas[00:00:00]

Once carried through the current and being swept away[00:00:06]

The king is in his closet he's hiding from today[00:00:12]

And though he owns all fortunes this room is where he'll stay[00:00:18]

And his world is filled with darkness turning grey[00:00:24]

Gazing out the window of the forty-second floor[00:00:31]

He is separate from all others no one knocks upon his door[00:00:36]

And it might as well be raining 'cause the sunlight hurts his eyes[00:00:42]

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

Once proud and full of passion he fought the cause of man[00:00:54]

Many people loved his courage many followed his command[00:00:59]

He changed the old into the new and the course of things to come[00:01:05]

And then one day they noticed he was gone[00:01:11]

At first it didn't matter nobody seemed to care[00:01:16]

They all became too busy to find him anywhere[00:01:22]

But no one knew not even him the problems he would find[00:01:28]

On the day he journeyed deep into his mind[00:01:33]

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

Away from this battlefield[00:01:43]

In my dreams well[00:01:46]

Here I will enjoy it[00:01:49]

Where innocence plays with all[00:01:51]

The laughing children[00:01:54]

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

A taste of freedom from the pain[00:02:03]

Of everything here I see[00:02:06]

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

And now I don't know if I could even tell you[00:02:15]

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

Allow me to forget the life I've made my own[00:02:28]

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

Oh allow me just one answer and one reason why[00:02:39]

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

Tell me why[00:02:50]

Daydreams filled his nighttimes and night-dreams filled his days[00:05:09]

Confusion and uncertainty a puzzled mind of haze[00:05:15]

You thought he was so powerful and set upon his ways[00:05:21]

Well he left us all to follow through this maze[00:05:26]

I heard the king was dying I heard the king was dead[00:05:32]

And with him died the chronicles that no one ever read[00:05:38]

The closet's fully empty now it's occupied by none[00:05:44]

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