Poetry for the Poisoned, Pt. II - So Long Lyrics

A minute more until the light of day is seen.
Lay down, I know you must be nearly there.
A bloody kiss and the vision of a dream,
for the last of your days in the sun.

In the white light
I am calm yet peculiarly cold.
Silent slumber and wide awake,
Lord have mercy on my soul.

So long your sorrow be gone.
Show me how it feels to be alive.
No more denial, so long.
Let us find a place where we can hide.

You fed me long, and by God you fed me well.
Sleep tight, this day belongs to you my dear.
And I am bound like a beast onto its prey,
we are one of a kind you and I.

Pale moon wander,
I'm wide awake.
Lord, have mercy
on my soul!

So long your sorrow be gone.
Show me how it feels to be alive.
No more denial, so long.
Show me all the splendors of the night.

So long, the little last of your attention.
Sorrow, this flood to wash your mind.
See me, the God of your imagination.
Feel me, come with me tonight.

So long your sorrow be gone,
show me how it feels to be alive.
No more denial, so long!
