Harvest (ES) - The Machine lyrics

Lights burn in the garden shed He can see his fathers' silhouette Walk from one side to another Swinging tools of fire "What's he building this time?" The boy wonders eagerly He wants to see what's inside Take a look behind The door that separates them From being united In his eyes he's a genius Working on a secret Sure one day he will reveal Barefooted he leaves his room Trying hard to make no sound As he walks to the forbidden kingdom He wants to see what's inside Take a look behind The door that separates them From being united 37 steps it takes Uncontrollable shaking of his legs Small and sweaty hands reach out Even tough he knows that he's not allowed A device of old scrap metal in the shed Blinding lightning shows the shape of his dad Trapped behind the iron door that's firmly closed While the threshold coughs up thick and grey smoke Kicking at the door he starts to scream: "I have to set you free!" Through the small window he can see The broken face and weary eyes As if to say goodbye the lips move and pronounce: "I wanted you to be proud!"
