The Long Sleep - Citizen Cain

Johnny can’t see in the dark with his eyes closed

Stumbling blindly around there

Johnny can’t hear in the dark and

Johnny’s afraid of the dark with his mind closed

Stumbling blindly around there

Johnny’s asleep in the dark

It’s the wind in the willows

It’s the ghost of the night come calling

You are the fallen from grace to your grave

Fathers now children have long gone astray

And if you think there is room for escape… wrong!

Lost in the spirit of an open mind

Inner state inner time

Sons of your heaven

Lost in the spirit of an open crime

Sons of your devil

You’re fast asleep in some dark tale

Of dragons screaming darker days

ALL WELCOME!

You are the fallen from dreams to your graves

Fathers now children have long gone astray

And if you think there is room for escape

Son all in the mind

Son darkness and light

Son all that is thine

Man he stands by Eden’s open gates

Sees the world outside a barren waste

Wonders at her form

Her veil ripped and torn

That is how they come to know thee

Seven sisters with their warlike charms

Devour the Angel when his wings are down

They take him to themselves

And begin to weave their spells

That is how they come to hold thee

All of my life in a world of strange delights

Like a spider weaves the night

You were cast out from the light

You were drowned in storms where waters rage

And darkness reigns forever sleeping

Out of the cold lost and alone

Fear takes a hold gets into your soul

Furies and fates your destiny

Whose waters rage forever

When you eat from the tree

Your mind is mine

When you taste from the fruit

You’ll know desire

When you sleep in my roots

You’ll know the pyre

Seven sisters in their father’s arms

Drink the blood that flows out from his heart

Traps him by their spells then they carry off to hell

That is how they come to own thee

Falling down into the briar

Falling down into the fire down and down

I see a crow flying high on the wing I call to heaven

The stars I was born too my heart wants to soar too

Lest Gorgon rising from infernal lakes

With horror armed and curls of hissing snakes

Should fixed me stiffened at the monstrous sight

A stone image in eternal night

Oh exercised in grief by arts refined

Or taught to bare the wrongs of base mankind

Such such was I still tossed from care to care

While in your world I drew the vital air

BENE ELOHIM

Liberate tutemet ex inferis

Liberate tutemet ex inferis

Flesh and blood the price the angel will pay
