Utopia at Last
I took the window down
As I climbed inside
A distant pouring rain
Hung loosely on my mind
I stepped into the glass
And got up on my feet
I shook the hand of
Old Mephistopheles
From the arrival of the guards
You were on his side
You learned to wager
Like the soulless sailors
Into the field of loving hearts
You threw your grenade
Aching to explode
For whoever made the call
Of emergency
You had a name on
The bullet in your fake gun
You yearned to declare war
With those who wouldn't care
For all the things you know
I took the mirror down
Though I never meant to hide
When vision is at stake
Don't ever trust your eyes
My house was made of cards
But the joker up my sleeve
Slowly stole away
I thought he smiled at me
I thought he smiled at me
The sailors set their ship ablaze
And washed themselves ashore
A symptom of their fragile state
Where safety is a bore
At the center of it all
You crafted hurricanes
To blow away those
Self-deceiving wailers
In the field of loving hearts
You immersed your soul
The cheerful crowd was aching for
Utopia at Last
As I climbed inside
A distant pouring rain
Hung loosely on my mind
I stepped into the glass
And got up on my feet
I shook the hand of
Old Mephistopheles
From the arrival of the guards
You were on his side
You learned to wager
Like the soulless sailors
Into the field of loving hearts
You threw your grenade
Aching to explode
For whoever made the call
Of emergency
You had a name on
The bullet in your fake gun
You yearned to declare war
With those who wouldn't care
For all the things you know
I took the mirror down
Though I never meant to hide
When vision is at stake
Don't ever trust your eyes
My house was made of cards
But the joker up my sleeve
Slowly stole away
I thought he smiled at me
I thought he smiled at me
The sailors set their ship ablaze
And washed themselves ashore
A symptom of their fragile state
Where safety is a bore
At the center of it all
You crafted hurricanes
To blow away those
Self-deceiving wailers
In the field of loving hearts
You immersed your soul
The cheerful crowd was aching for
Utopia at Last
