10: Lone Wizard
(Yves Villeneuve - vocals, guitar, bass)
Music & Lyrics by Yves Villeneuve
Lone Wizard
CHORUS
Lone wizard
Longs to save a fearless world
Lone wizard
The soul urges him on
Unheard boy marching the wrath
Unseen man preaching the path
Pain of needles in his back
Mind torn by unfair attack
A day no one needs to fight
Two small fists gripped in snow white
A slow march creeping to crawl
Ten ice toes cause eyes to bawl
CHORUS
The black caps in white cruiser
Speak nice to unsung loser
With glaze of a tortured hand
No response from shepherd lad
The men who are here protect
Question the weathered reject
Dreams of falling to hard ground
Unsure if shoulder unsound
CHORUS
Lying low in a back seat
A date with home for the weak
On the stretcher boy unwinds
A kind cop lays gloves behind
Wanting the good cop to hear:
Grateful was the wizard child
For police-tagged battle gear
CHORUS
