John Francis Dooley
2
Wipe the sleep from your eyes
3
And embrace the light.
4
You have slept now for a thousand years
5
Beneath starless nights.
6
And now it's time for you to renounce the old ways
7
And see a new dawn rise.
8
In former days
9
The masks were raised
10
When the god came down from off the mountain,
11
And a sacrifice was made
12
For they knew the day of WRATH
13
Was fast approaching.
14
Just like yesterday...
15
Before the war.
16
John Francis Dooley,
17
The scapegoat has run
18
All our sins are disowned.
19
And now it's time for you
20
To take off thy mask
21
And cross the Rubicon!
22
If you and I were one
23
Within the eyes of our designs,
24
It would still not change
25
The fact of our leaving.
26
For tonight we must leave
27
With the first gentle breeze.
28
For the Isles of Ken we are assailing!
29
Just like Ullyses, on an open sea
30
On an odyssey
31
Of self-discovery...
