The hero he rode a white horse

Across the desert to where his woman was

He'd been riding for four days

When he saw the tower where she was locked

In the moonlight he left his old steed

Near the drawbridge that he crossed

And by way of a rope ladder

He tip-toed to where his woman was

If I recall you're the actor

Who followed the stars

Searching for

The lost city of Mars

Hoping time would heal the scars

Knowing fate held no bars

Are you the one

That I think you are?

Are you the hero or are you the madman?

The madman climbed

The steeple spire

"Go higher" said the crowd

From down below

"But, the world's on fire" cried the madman

From the steeple spire

"You're a liar" cried the crown

From down below

The madman climbed the steeple spire

And let a crystal ball tear

Fall on the crown

From down below

If I recall you're the actor

Who took to the stage

Set the world ablaze

With your anger and your rage

With every new leaf

You turned and wrote a new page

Cleverly concealing

Your real age

Those that knew you

Were always quite amazed

Are you the one

Who can take this praise?

Are you the hero or are you the madman?

"You're the only one"

"who can save us"

Said the wizard

"Or all is lost"
