The piper plays a tune echoing louder
Parading acid dancers in the dark
The question that I spawn has got no answer
The maelstrom in the mirror breaks my heart
The piper plays a tune and I betrayed the golden rule
I guess that when I hear that tune
The piper knows I'm a fool
If there's a kingdom come
Right behind that cloud above the maddening crowd
If there's a kingdom come
Let me die another day
I ain't got the piper's pay
And he's standing my way
My 44 was all about glory
A shot in anger fired too late to trail
My soul will never heal in a wound that I conceal
A guilty man I stalk the dragons tail
The piper played a tune and I woke up in a duel
Trigger finger shakin'
I completely lost my cool
If there's a kingdom come
Right behind that cloud above the maddening crowd
If there's a kingdom come
Let me die another day
I ain't got the piper's pay
He's standing my way
