Darkade

Come inside if you dare

Learn the law and the prayer

See the stars all arrayed

Watch them flicker as they fade

In this darkade

Through the glass and through the wire

Fall to earth while rising higher

Penetrate the proud parade

Hear the cries and feel afraid

In this darkade

By the time it’s all been said

You might suspect you’ve been misled

Pirouette and promenade 

As sirens sing a serenade

In this darkade

See the shadows on the wall

Dance and shudder as they fall

The puppet master has been paid

To tear them down once they are made

In this darkade
