my brilliant feat

did someone call my name?

like a distant drum is beating

or is it just another dream of long ago?

i dance again i am spinning

in the light i am living

and i can feel the power rushing through my veins

once upon a time i could do no wrong

for the candle flickers

the flame is never gone

to my brilliant feat

they all pay heed

i hear the crowds roar oh so loudly

is it a game of chance?

or merely circumstances

a jack to a king and back

then you have to pay to play

the world it won't wait for you

its got its own things to do

the sun's gotta rise and drive another night away

and as i listen to the silence

i can hear thunder in the distance

to my brilliant feat

they all pay heed

i hear the crowds roar oh so loudly

to my brilliant feat

i make grown men weep

and still my eyes grow oh so cloudy
