May 2013
I danced for the king
And those of the court
To entertain the masses,
no matter the rapport
I laughed off the laughs
I laughed off the lies
Told myself they'll never see you cry
I danced on the tables
I danced on the chairs
I danced in great halls
I danced during grand affairs
Thought I was loved but it was a lie
A fool was all I was in their eyes
I wanted to be loved so I sold them all lies
But the fool was all I was in their eyes
