about

When Mark Twain was asked if he was afraid of death he replied ' I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it'

lyrics

Dark Father
(Words and music Ray Cooper)

Hello again my old friend
Back to the beginning, back to the end
I've been waiting for you to come
Dark father dark star dark son

I knew that we would meet again
Back from the beginning back from the end
And I will rest in the warm dark tide
As you close my eyes

I don't belong in heaven I don't believe in hell
Where I'm going will suit me well
All the bad and all the good I've ever done, is one
Dark father dark star dark son

Always there, never lost never won
Waiting at the end of time, the end of clocks to run
And all the bad and all the good I've ever done, is one
Dark father dark star dark son

And I saw where I am going I know where I've been
To the dark purple distance we have all seen
At the end of nights and days and setting suns
Dark father dark star dark son
