Lyrics for Song: Poetry For The Poisoned, Pt. I. Incubus
Lyrics for Album: Poetry For The Poisoned [2010]
There was a time when I was young
A boy with bold ambitions
There was a time when I could tell the crooked from the wicked one
There was a song that someone sung
A hint of recognition
There was a time I knew you well enough to know you won't be gone
[Chorus:] Come with me tonight
Tell me how it feels to be alive
There was a time I had respect
A name of reputation
There was a time when I could watch myself without being disgraced
[Chorus:] Come with me tonight
Let us find a place where we can hide
[Chorus:] Come into the light
Let me show you how we stay alive
[Instrumental]
[Spoken:]
The word "incubus" means "to lie on",
and it was believed that any feeling in bed,
such as a weight pressing down on your chest,
especially accompanied by nightmares,
was a sure sign that an incubus had attempted to have
nocturnal intercourse with you.
Given the religious fervour of Middle Ages,
it is not altogether surprising that the idea of a
demon lover was believed to account for this phenomenon.
