A young boy
Playing all alone
In an imaginary world
In his father’s home
He escaped from family
Hid from terrifying life
His imaginary world
Sheltered him from his strife
Then he grew
Was forced out alone
But he never forgot
His imaginary home
And while all around him
Was pain and stress
His imaginary world
Seemed by far the best
So he closed his eyes
Sang in a voice so clear
That his imaginary world
Began to appear
He sang so clear
The world alive
And the boy stepped in
Where he could finally survive
And they made him a king
Put a crown on his head
You sang us this world
That we love!, they all said
I don't want to be king
Just to sing and create!
Long live the king
Isn't he great?
And as years flew by
He was loved on his throne
Though to tell you the truth
He longed to be alone
As long as you sit in the throne
You can stay
So the terrified boy
Was force to obey
So he closed his eyes
Sang in a voice so clear
That his imaginary world
Began to appear
He sang so clear
The world alive
And the boy stepped in
Where he could finally survive
But I'm tired, and lonely
And so very afraid
And the kingdom seems angry
Yet he still feared to trade
He had a fair queen
Loyal, pure and true
Perhaps we should leave
Where you go I'll go too
But you never have seen
The horrors of my land
All the people are slaves
And they live lives so bland
So they dreamed of escape
But there was no place to go
And they shivered, and cowered
And prepared for his show
So he closed his eyes
Sang in a voice so clear
That his imaginary world
Began to appear
He sang so clear
The world alive
And the boy stepped in
Where he could finally survive
