Biography

Formed in Stevenage, Hertfordshire (UK) in 1984. Fields Of The Nephilim were a distinctive goth rock band that incorporated psychedelic and progressive elements until their eventual split in 1991. Following the split, vocalist [a=Carl McCoy] pursued his [a=The Nefilim] project. The remainder of the band began their new venture [a=Rubicon (3)], with vocalist [a=Andy Delany]. In 1998 rumours of a Fields Of The Nephilim reunion were announced, but failed to see the light of day. In 2002 Jungle Records released a number of recordings without the consent of McCoy who regrouped and eventually produced the Mourning Sun album (2005).

LYRICS

Moonchild... Moonchild Moonchild Moonchild
Well it's a righteous dream, out of mind yeah
A righteous dream, out of mind yeah
{Is it right just dreaming out of my day}
Take your horses
Let them crawl
Put them in their cages
(That's righteous for your soul)

Open your eyes
Despite what seems
Longevity
That's a righteous part of me

Chorus:
Moonchild
Lower me down, lower me down
Moonchild... lower me down down down down down down

Well it's a righteous day, out of mind yeah
A righteous day

Never return, I'm waiting no more
They take no prisoners in the promised war
I'll die for this
I'll die for this
Take it away

Chorus:

(Moonchild)
Take off for safer places
Can't you see
You're losing me {He sure is, losing me that is :-)}

Chorus:

{Variation on chorus}

Well I'm listening to an empty hall
You can't see for they've burned before
They take me down to the [window] shame
Longevity hear my fame

Moonchild
