Kansas - The Pinnacle Lyrics
I have so much to sayYet I cannot speakCome undo my bidding nowFor I have grown too weakMy weary eyes have seenAll that life can giveCome to me, oh young oneFor you I can forgiveI stood where no man goesAnd conquered demon foesWith glory and passionNo longer in fashionThe hero breaks his bladeCast the shadow longThat I may hide my faceAnd in this cloak of darknessThe world I will embraceIn all that I endureOf one thing I am sureKnowledge and reasonChange like the seasonA jester's promenadeLying at my feet I saw the offering you bringThe mark of pain is on our facesWorn and sufferingOh I long to hear you say it's not been wrongI stand before you nowThe riddle in my songThe answer is that sweet refrainUnheard it always will remainBeyond the reach, beyond the gainTrapped in life's charadeA king without a crownIn this joy of madnessMy smile might seem a frownWith talons rod of steelI tore the heart of doomAnd in one gleaming momentI saw beyond the tombI stood where no man goesAbove the den I roseLife is amusingThough we are losingDrowned in tears of awe
