Seven Wonders

When shadows fall, he'll close his eyes

to hear the clocks unwind

powerless to leash the hands of time

Kindoms fall, the earth revolves

the rain will come this spring

and nothing he could say would change a thing

Seven wonders crowed the man

knowing six are gone

and how the great illusion lingers on

He cant enfold, the sun or moon

or wind within his hand

but count the times he'll shout the great i am

With all the while, a pontiff smile

veiling his disgrace

at never owning more than second place

Seven wonders crowed the man

knowing six are gone

and how the great illusion lingers on

Seven wonders crowed the man

knowing six are gone

and how the great illusion lingers

while the sad confusion lingers

all the while illusion lingers on
