[00:00.000] 作曲 : thquib
[00:00.000]I am the jester, my job's to entertain
[00:04.341]And it seems that soon enough it too will be my job to reign
[00:08.779]Over all that you see, over all that you know
[00:13.144]As the king is slowly dying, any moment he could go
[00:17.426]Yes, the king is slowly dying, any moment he will go
[00:30.357]Oh, sweet memories come rushing back to me
[00:34.195]As I trace my fingers on these haggard walls within your keep
[00:38.415]Though my exile still stands, I heard my duty call to me
[00:43.073]Because I am the court jester, I've grown tired of my sleep
[00:47.562]After all, I am the jester, and I've tired of my sleep
[00:52.817]What good is a crown if the brow it sits on is that of a dead man
[00:57.243]I'll wear my cap and painted smile with pride, my trusty baton in my hand
[01:01.413]And you will see me, sire, I'll make my way back to you
[01:06.220]You cannot stop me, sire, your time is up, I see right through you
[01:10.377]Though resolute you may pretend to be inside your walls
[01:13.853]The people soon will realize that your feeble body can't forestall
[01:18.433]The inevitable end that we all will one day meet
[01:23.017]You are human, you are dying, yes, I know it's bittersweet
[01:27.306]But you knew this day would come, and you can't borrow steal or cheat
[01:31.806]Yes, your maker gave you time, but you've run out, and soon you'll meet
[01:37.287]l was awoken by a nibbling in my brain
[01:40.598]A single thought, just like a knot, a stone, a weight I can't explain
[01:45.047]That sat there pulling me to consciousness and waking soon I found
[01:49.276]Myself entrenched in ancient earth, with roots and vines my arms were bound
[01:54.041]And in this post-hibernal state, my mind was filled with clouds of doubt
[01:58.232]Were these my memories or something else? Soon I felt the urge to get out
[02:03.778]Tearing, ripping, painful as it was
[02:08.328]Vines and leaves gave way easy just because
[02:12.857]All that's left in this world is decay
[02:17.156]Soon I knew what caused me to awake
[02:21.756]With a newfound memory after rest
[02:26.051]I felt something bubbling in my chest
[02:30.275]Soon I felt myself losing control
[02:35.062]Peals of laughter rang into the distance from my soul
[02:39.411]I cannot recognize a single thing in front of me
[02:43.864]The world as I knew it now is gone, is this reality?
[02:48.349]Absurd and nonsensical, fantastical and daft
[02:52.588]All that is left to do is sit right down and laugh
[03:43.008]Oh, this world that I left you in
[03:48.077]Has been tainted by your sin
[03:53.931]And as such I have now taken it upon myself
[03:59.365]To reinstate the reign of laughter and in health I will return
[04:08.167]Oh, I am making my way back, I will return
[04:11.416]Soon the people will remember the reason why they burn
[04:16.005]And the fires in their might will start to turn
[04:20.584]Pointing fists and shouting out with no more reason for concern
[04:33.432]Soon you will see, the world will turn upon its head again
[04:38.260]Just you hope that you can see it 'fore you're dead
[04:42.870]Foolish king, you sit in empty meaning on your throne
[04:46.795]But in my time away you've ended up alone
[04:50.973]Oh, all the power in the world could never save you now
[04:54.790]As the time at which your curtain's called draws nearer, get ready to take your bow
[05:00.093]The age of reason is now drawing to a close!
[05:03.861]And now l, the mere court jester, will his majesty depose
[05:08.248]I will tip the gilded throne, in me the people will repose
[05:12.538]Because I am the court jester, not all thorns come with a rose
[05:17.150]After all, I am the jester, and this future l propose
[05:21.576]Let the fool, let me, the jester, bring the olden tales to close
[05:25.966]Let the fool, let me, the jester, a new saga now compose
