I Will Prevail

A child believes the best in you
And that belief always make the darkest
lies seem almost true
A sleight of hand....this "almost truth"
can beguile the purest youth
To Wonderland
Now every piece is in place
And all that's left to erase before I take over all the power
Is every trace of dear Alice then the queen
She' been a thorn in my side and she can run but can't hide
We're fast approaching the witching hour
And settling score is my routine
Oh well-- all's well, end's well -- farewell, Alice
Too late--checkmate is your fate...
It's over
I come alive when you're afraid
I'll write the ending of your tragic fairy tale
I will survive and you will fade
A withered flower small and frail...
While I prevail.

This time it's gonna be me
The last thing you'll ever see
And armageddon of my devising
There's no way you can escape from what I do
So leave your half-hearted souls
For me to bully and rule
The sly magician of compromising
To conjure all that is false until it's true
Poor Jack -- blackjack, sad-sack fallen hero
Bad news-- you lose, light the fuse...
It's over
You die -- I thrive -- and so it goes
I am the ending of your tragic fairy tale
I will survive and heaven knows
There is no way that I can fail
I will prevail.
