Coming Down - Citizen Cain

Jericho has crumbled not a soul is left inside

kings and queens and courtiers have all died

the dust that covers over itself becomes a shrine

but no-one's there to worship

Angels that sleep by the tomb

enter the world through the womb

sun he has darkened clouds all agree

stars that fall from heaven unclean

Angels that sleep by the grave

enter the world in chains

moon she is shaken clouds all agree

stars that fall from heaven unseen

we have stalked the night of ages seen

we have known the light where heavens reign

we are the true sons the host

we are the mind the universe

we are space time the multiverse

we are the true sons the host

and if you ever take a walk on the wild side

shadows in the night on the wild side

in the night when you fall asleep

dreams become your only escape

we became the light in Adam’s face

Eve became the womb for heaven’s race

we became the eyes of the world

and if you ever take a walk on the wild side

shadows in the night on the wild side

in the night when you fall asleep

dreams become your only escape

jericho has crumled not a soul is left inside

the dust that covers over then hides

the shrine becomes an altar is hidden out of sight

its somewhere out there in the twilight

(ii) THE FOUNTAINS OF SAND

So many men by the waters each one in line to quench his thirst

the tree of life in the distance but no-one can cross to it now

someone said that heaven’s all around me

someone said through sin you go to hell

but we’re already here

(iii) DELIVERED UP FOR TEA

Welcome my good friends come in and rest yourselves

you’re tired and alone as we can see

but all around you feast your eyes

for no one here can die you’re already dead

here’s Hector in the shade so faint and very pale

a shadow of his former glory seen

his Troy has vanished over time

when he came home to die one of the dead

ADONI ADONI

a fish caught in the net the fisher man has no regrets

when he delivers you up for tea

come in and take your fill my net caught you as well

brought you to the depths of my delights

there are no castles in the sky

but those already died one of the dead

ADONI ADONI

a fish caught in the net the fisher man has no regrets

when he delivers you up for tea

here is where you lay each night of every day as one of the dead

one of the dead

each man must die by the waters never seeing more than a sip

the tree of life lost forever cut down by the sword and the fear

someone said that heaven’s all around me

someone said through hell you come to see

we’re already here

here you are come from the light you’re welcome every one

you have seen a thousand life times but remember none but one

you are in the halls of Hades where your judgement shall delay you

as the heaven you seek shall fall

there are no dice or game of chance or sins yet to commit

within those thousand life times the same acts you commit

you are in the halls of Hades where our judgement shall delay thee

in circles forever bound… so we’re already dead

(iv) DEATH AND REBIRTH

«HE is mortal man and has all things in his power

yet he suffers the lot of mortal man being subject to destiny

if then being made of life and light you learn you are made from them

you will go back into the life and light.»
