[C]
[Verse 1]
[C]
Hurt once and for all into silence
[C]
A long pain ending without a song to prove it
[F]
Who could stand beside you so close to Eden,
[F]
When you glinted in every eye the held-high
[C]
razor, shivering every ram and son?
[Verse 2]
[C]
And now the silent loony bin, where
[C]
The shadows live in the rafters like day-weary bats,
[F]
Until the turning mind, a radar signal, lures them to exaggerate
[C]
Mountain-size on the white stone wall
[G] [C]
Your tiny limp
[Verse 3]
[F]
How can I leave you in such a house?
[F]
Are there no more saints and wizards to praise their ways with pupils,
[C]
No more evil to stun with the slap of a wet red tongue?
[G]
Did you confuse the Messiah in a mirror
[C]
and rest because he had finally come?
[F]
Let me cry help beside you, Teacher
[F]
I have entered under this dark roof
[C]
As fearlessly as an honoured son enters his father's house
