Jester's Court
She was just a girl
Dressed in a woman's skin.
Never quite got it
Never quite fit in
Knew early on that throwing words
Was a waste of time
Prize possessions like sincerity
Never did headline
She always strolls the second path
To the drummer in her heart
To try to make a difference
In a worldly jester's court.
She's walked a lifetime
Following her heart
She's stood tall while she crumbled
And dreams blew apart
She held her head above the shame
Of a world gone quite insane
To face the empty mornings
She embraced the pain
She always strolls the second path
To the drummer in her heart
To try to make a difference
In a worldly jester's court
She never wanted the career
Of a liberated woman
She found freedom on a path of truth
Sought solace in the moment
Now she walks in solitude
Upright and on her own
People and possessions come and go
But thru it all she's known
To always stroll the second path
To the drummer in her heart
To try to make a difference
In a worldly jester's court.
