Ullyses

Dead Can Dance

John Francis Dooley, wipe the sleep from your eyes
And embrace the light
You have slept now for a thousand years
Beneath starless nightsAnd now it's time for you
To renounce the old ways
And to see a new dawn riseIn former days the masks were raised
When the God came down from off the mountain
And a sacrifice was made
For they knew the day of wrath was fast approachingJust like yesterday before the warJohn Francis Dooley, the scapegoat has run
All our sins are disowned
And now it's time for you to take off your mask
And cross the RubiconIf you and I were one within the eyes of our designs
It would still not change the fact of our leaving
For tonight we must leave with the first gentle breeze
For the Isles of Ken we are assailingJust like Ullyses on an open sea
On an odyssey of self-discovery
