Fool's Paradise

Boiling, steaming
The poison green potion
Carefully stewed
Spiced with stable hand
No one knows
The secret, sacred chamber
Where the mind-blowing ideas
Are given birth

The only thing valuable for him
Is to get above humanity
Midas within wants everything
Sacrifices committed

Drunk of the life he has received
All the doors are open
To make the mistake that he can
Make only once in a lifetime
Remember the oldest of cliches
While being dewy-eyed like a Child
Nothing lasts forever

His funeral is the end of an idealist
Also the burial of pure idiocy, a fantasy

His funeral is the end of an idealist
Also the burial of pure idiocy, a fantasy

His legend lives on but no one seems to
Know how serious it was
For sure he went too far
History will not be made
From beside the stars
Fool's paradise falling down

The journey took his life while he was only searching for one
He seemed to want it just a little too much
In his gullibility he forgot something important
There never was a thing called a forever

The only thing valuable for him
Was to get above humanity
Midas within took everything
His sacrifice is committed
