Eyes of smoke and stars,
The Magician stands atop the world
Casually cruel, only time will tell
If it’s to be kind or no?
Dazzling the world with a show,
The Assistant trapped in a box
Waiting for the chop, chop, chop.
A trick to please the audience,
But the Magician underestimates,
Miscalculates the audience’s intelligence.
The mistake of one so disconnected
From the truth of reality so
Long have they stood upon the stage
Together and forgotten what it’s like
To sit and watch from the cheap seats.
