In the Wake of Poseidon Lyrics


Plato's spawn cold ivy eyes
Snare truth in bone and globe
Harlequins coin pointless games
Sneer jokes in parrot's robeTwo women weep, Dame Scarlet Screen
Sheds sudden theater rain
Whilst dark in dream the Midnight Queen
Knows every human painIn air, fire, earth and water, world on the scales
Air, fire, earth and water, balance of change
World on the scales on the scalesBishop's kings spin judgment's blade
Scratch, "Faith", on nameless graves
Harvest hags Hoard ash and sand
Rack rope and chain for slavesWho fireside fear fermented words
Then rear to spoil the feast
Whilst in the aisle the mad man smiles
To him it matters leastHeroes hands drain stones of blood
To whet the scaling knife
Magi blind with visions light
Net death in dread of lifeTheir children kneel in Jesus till

They learn the price of nails
Whilst all around our mother earth
Waits balanced on the scales

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

King Crimson is a progressive rock group from England formed in 1969 by guitarist Robert Fripp and drummer Michael Giles. Though originally an all-British musical group, later members have included a number of Americans, most notably Adrian Belew, and Tony Levin. The name "King Crimson" was coined by Peter Sinfield as a synonym for Beelzebub, prince of demons. King Crimson's debut album was In the Court of the Crimson King.
