1
The rusted chains of prison moons
2
Are shattered by the sun.
3
I walk a road, horizons change
4
The tournament's begun.
5
The purple piper plays his tune,
6
The choir softly sing;
7
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue,
8
For the court of the crimson king.
9
The keeper of the city keys
10
Puts shutters on the dreams.
11
I wait outside the pilgrim's door
12
With insufficient schemes.
13
The black queen chants the funeral march,
14
The cracked brass bells will ring;
15
To summon back the fire witch
16
To the court of the crimson king.
17
The gardener plants an evergreen
18
Whilst trampling on a flower.
19
I chase the wind of a prism ship
20
To taste the sweet and sour.
21
The pattern juggler lifts his hand;
22
The orchestra begin;
23
As slowly turns the grinding wheel
24
In the court of the crimson king.
25
On soft grey mornings widows cry,
26
The wise men share a joke.
27
I run to grasp divining signs
28
To satisfy the hoax.
29
The yellow jester does not play
30
But gently pulls the strings
31
And smiles as the puppets dance
32
In the court of the crimson king.
