Bruce Cockburn - Fascist Architecture

Fascist architecture of my own design
Too long been keeping my love confined
You tore me out of myself alive

Those fingers drawing out blood like sweat
While the magnificent facades crumble and burn
The billion facets of brilliant love
The billion facets of freedom turning in the light

Bloody nose and burning eyes
Raised in laughter to the skies
I've been in trouble but I'm okay
Been through the wringer but I'm okay
Walls are falling and I'm okay
Under the mercy and I'm okay

Bloody nose and burning eyes
Raised in laughter to the skies
I've been in trouble but I'm okay
Been through the wringer but I'm okay
Walls are falling and I'm okay
Under the mercy and I'm okay

Gonna tell my old lady
Gonna tell my little girl
There isn't anything in the world
That can lock up my love again

Gonna tell my old lady
Gonna tell my little girl
There isn't anything in the world
That can lock up my love again
