So you Finally Made It

Just like a tear upon the gown
Of a bride who walks the aisle alone
You turned the smile into a frown
With your deeds of fire and words of stone
In black and white your world goes round
Inviting me to share you paper crown
You are the face in any crowd
Who sneers upon our carnival
Until we play to rules allowed
And swallow all our principles
Then your hands come out your world comes down
Inviting us to share your paper crown
So you finally made it
So you finally learnt to see
So you finally learnt to play the game
So glad you could make it
So glad you could close your eyes and be
Happy to play the fool again
There is a snake in every field
Who waits to make the strike again
The blood of wounds thats long congealed
Is waiting for the bite again
In black and white your world goes round
Inviting us to share your paper crown
So you finally made it
So you finally learnt to see
So you finally learnt to play the game
So glad you could make it
So glad you could close your eyes and be
Happy to play the fool again
So you finally made it
So you finally learnt to see
So you finally learnt to play the game
So glad you could make it
So glad you could close your eyes and be
Happy to play the fool again
So you finally made it
