Outside the cage I see my Brother John,
He turns his head so slowly round.
I cry out Help! before he can be gone,
And he looks at me without a sound.
And I shout out 'John please help me!'
But he does not even want to try to speak.
I'm helpless in my violent rage
And a silent tear of blood dribbles down his cheek,
And I watch him turn away and leave the cage.
My little runaway.
could it be john lennon? does anyone know of any siblings of any members that were named john? in this version b in brother is capitalized, signifying to me a religious connection.
i think it could be john lennon because i just read the other day that the previous album, 'selling england by the pound', was praised by lennon. they found out about that praised and were very proud that a hero of theirs like what they produced.
also, the references to the song/album/movie 'help!' (with the exclamation point) are giving it away.
John is Rael's (the protagonist of the entire Lamb story) brother. Rael is searching for John through most of the story, and when he finds him at the end (the song "It"), he realizes that John is simply another personality within himself. This interpretation is partially based on comments I've heard from various members of Genesis in interviews.

i wonder who "john" might be in this passage:
