In The Kingdom Of The Blind The One-Eyed Are Kings - Lyrics by Dead Can Dance


Lyrics
If it were within,                               within our power                               beyond the reach                               of slavish pride,                                 to no-longer                              harbour grievances                               behind the mask's                             opportunists facade,                        we could welcome responsibility                            like a long lost friend                           and re-establish laughter                        in the doll's house once again.                          For time has imprisoned us                           in the order of our years                         in the discipline of our ways                   and in the passing of momentary stillness                        You can see our chaos in motion                              our chaos in motion                        We can view our chaos in motion                          view our chaos in motion...(INSERT SAYS THE FOLLOWING LINES //SHOULD// END THIS SONG)                   ...and the subsequent collisions of fools                   well-versed in the subtle art of slavery.
