  • Bored of the life in the city of gold
    He'd left and let nobody know
    Gone were the towers he had known from a child
    Along with a dream of a life
    He traveled the wide open road
    The blinkered arcade
    In search of another to share in his life, nowhere
    Everyone looked so strange to him
    They got no horns and they got no tail
    They don't even know of our existence
    Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
    That lies in the deep distance?
    He cried and wept as they led him away to a cage
    Beast that can talk, read the sign
    The creatures, they pushed and they prodded his frame
    And questioned his story again
    But soon they grew bored of their prey
    The beast that can talk
    More like a freak or publicity stunt, oh oh, no no
    They got no horns and they got no tail
    They don't even know of our existence
    Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
    That lies in the deep distance?
    He cried and broke down the door
    Of the cage and marched on out
    He grabbed a creature by the scruff of his neck, pointing out
    There, beyond the bounds of your weak imagination
    Lie the noble towers of my city, bright and gold
    Let me take you there, show you a living story
    Let me show you others such as me, why did I ever leave?
    "They got no horns and they got no tail
    They don't even know of our existence
    Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
    That lies in the deep distance?", he cried and wept
    And so we set out with the beast and his horns
    And his crazy description of home
    After many days journey, we came to a peak
    Where the beast gazed abroad and cried out
    We followed his gaze and we thought that maybe we saw
    A spire of gold, no, a trick of the eye, that's all
    But the beast was gone and a voice was heard
    They got no horns and they got no tail
    They don't even know of our existence
    Am I wrong to believe in the city of gold
    That lies in the deep distance?
