Royal Jester - Vile Smile lyrics

In the dark of the night he appears* Waking up all my fears Cannot see if he's real I see myself for him kneel Who is this Harlequin that keeps me wake I recognize his face although it's fake This terror is unending The jester smile I see the light descending Oh so vile Try to tell him to leave me alone Do not challenge the king, but his powers have grown I hear his raw laughter ring Please tell me that it's just a dream of mind But everything seems real I can't be blind Cold is spreading in my royal room I hear whispers of doom There's a figure unclear, cannot see if he's near This terror is unending The jester smile I see the light descending Oh so vile King you have been a fool, now you will be my tool Now I feel my wrath creeping up You'd better believe This is not a joke, you will see This terror is unending The jester smile I see the light descending Oh so vile I have foreseen my own doom The jester smile I'm not alone in my room Oh so vile
