Kingdom of Oblivion
Bent Sæther, Hans Magnus Ryan
keep my sky blue
I know I need to keep my hopes alive
we all need to calm our waters
our sons and daughters all need to survive
and when the fog comes down and wraps me in its warm embrace
it keeps the pain at bay, the poppy always gives us grace:
kingdom of oblivion - I'm your subject, I'm your man
kingdom of oblivion - I will stay here if I can
slaves and masters
opiate pastors heaven in your hand
they will give us new painkillers
abyss fillers blank out on demand
so when the fog comes down and wraps me in its warm embrace
it keeps the pain at bay, the poppy always gives us grace:
kingdom of oblivion - I'm your subject, I'm your man
kingdom of oblivion - I will stay here if I can
