You tell yourself that you are so much better than this lowly rank
It’s easy you know after watching a few cheap tricks and card games
The ribbons pulled through the sleeves of the flapping jacket
Nothing to it, you’re unstoppable, right? Wrong!!
The face I see is astonished at my lack of understanding and blind faith
Because it will work without a doubt if you just believe in something
Anything will do, as long as it’s different to what you said was true before
The witch was never melted by water, there was something else
But that’s your problem, you’ll search long and hard to find the perfect time
To show everyone how bright and shiny you’re becoming
You bought a new cloak, changed the name you give until the point
Where you are confused at who you are, what you are, why you…
So many questions in your magic world of dreams and fairies, and happy endings
No trying because the magic will find you with your stolen invisible cloak
Of colours nobody else can see
The dragon coming towards you is oh so cleverly disguised
You put out the wand of prettiest crystal to stroke the unicorn in imagined blessing
To be consumed by the breath of the dragon you could not see.
