Citizen Cain - The Long Sleep lyrics

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 ADONI ADONI ADONI
