Surrounded by hissing machines
The steam was blurring my eyes and my head
Last blackbird sang its song
Sang the song about broken minds
A mellow suburban light
And a man breathing its yellow warmth in
And a tune in his lips pushed the
Flickering to the back of my mind
The man was wise and his tune was strong
A cloth to cover the realm
La la la lala la la la laa la la
You are my cane
La la la lala la la la laa la la
Repress all my pain
La la la lala la la la la lala la
You are my shelter and bane
Thirty-nine pale summers went by
Scary shadows reaching their claws out for me
Their number is still growing fast
But nothing can harm the land around me
'Cause this tune is mine and my tune is strong
A cloth to cover the realm
La la la lala la la la laa la la
You are my cane
La la la lala la la la laa la la
Repress all my pain
La la la lala la la la la lala la
You are my shelter and bane
I'm living still in an iron realm
Living my lucid dream
I'm living still in an iron realm
Living my lucid dream
But I'm happy, I'm happy now,
I'm happy, happy
Now listen to me, I'll teach you my tune
So you can be blessed like me
La la la lala la la la laa la la
You are my cane
La la la lala la la la laa la la
Repress all my pain
La la la lala la la la la lala la
You are my shelter and bane
