Paradoxical Hero

You can find it hided in a blue factory
The smell of gas catches you off guard
And you wish you had stayed in your fairy palace
The machine unveils itself
Rusty grey cogs are looking down at you
The Great Crusher runs ahead
It's all you can see and it's frightening you
And you think how can it still exist
It should be broken

It's the lie that I've been trying to tell
For all my life it's all I could see
And I could try to escape from my shell
To be like Stevie and to shout I'm free
But I'm both the captive and the host
Of this cynical engine I wrote
A perfect paradoxical hero
Learning to live and learning to let go

I don't know why you decided we
Should spent the night here in the factory
You learnt to brave, maybe you'll learn to love
The dark insides I got so tired of

It's the lie that I've been trying to tell
For all my life it's all I could see
And I could try to escape from my shell
To be like Stevie and to shout I'm free
But I'm both the captive and the host
Of this cynical engine I wrote
A perfect paradoxical hero
Learning to live and learning to let go

It's the lie that I've been trying to tell
For all my life it's all I could see
And I could try to escape from my shell
To be like Stevie and to shout I'm free
But I'm both the captive and the host
Of this cynical engine I wrote
A perfect paradoxical hero
Learning to live and learning to let go
