Signs of Reign - Jester Lyrics

We didn't have a plan
But we said we'd ride it out
Complaining to deceptive eyes
And then to eyes that never be

You never gave me a change
To prove myself a diamond in your rough
And not a puppet on your shelf
Dancing on the strings of your whims

I'm not a jester
In your will
Someone to call your own
In your world
A jester

You try to lead with what you said
Suffocating dread
With fallen rise a sinful spread
And a tear stained face
A tear stained face

I conjugate your words and find
Meaning to derive a version
I stretched out to see some Truth
In what was said

Oh won't you save me from the falls
I'm headed for and by
Somewhere along the way
You forgot I wasn't
A game to play

I'm not a jester
In your will
Someone to call your own
In your world
I'm not a jester
In your will
Someone to call your own
In your lies
A jester
