Cap'n Marble - Optical Wealth

Wholesale hearts begin
Infinite source of wealth detained within
Citizens at the gate
Ignorance has it's taste
That always hails from the wind

And so it happens all over again
They burn the tree down from a limb

And there is nothing to do to escape
This tragic play
So I just watch the seasons change
And prepare for the rain

Into the deadest night
Elephant in my shoe but feather light
Spectacles in the loge
Vestigial overgrowth
Unfolds the scope amid my eyes

And so it it happens all over again
They burn the house down from the den

But still there's nothing to do to escape
This tragic play
So I just watch the seasons change
And prepare for the rain
