lyrics

It is said that the mind
is very terrible to taste
I left this puny point of view behind
for I have this question chased
Although they shut the wooden door
and closed the iron bars
I am here as I was before
A sun among the stars

The benevolent fluttershy
has taken my concentration
I float freely
into the arms of my patron


Both mer and men walk even ways
From birth to death they pace
But long ago I insisted
On a diff'rent path so twisted
I sing my song in Solitude
In a world so cold and brute
To the madgod as his servile child
The one to keep my soul beguiled


White devils boogie on my hair
whispering of day and light
Their madsongs fill the chilly air
opening my fetters wide
But they strapped the iron chain
and bound me to my bed
they framed my aching brain
and trapped me in my head


The malevolent butterfly
has stolen my focus
I drift exhausted
Into the arms of my patron
