GHOST LYRICS

1. Ashes

Ring a ring of roses,
a pocket full of posies.
Atishoo, atishoo,
we all fall down.

Ashes on the water,
ashes in the sea,
ashes on the riverside.

One, two, three...

2. Rats

In times of turmoil,
in times like these.
Belief is contagious,
spreading disease.

This wretched mischief is now
coursing through your souls.
Never to let go,
never to let go.

Rats!

Into your sanctum
you let them in.
Now all your loved ones
and all your kin.

Will suffer punishments
beneath the wrath of God.
Never to forgive,
never to forget.

Rats...

This devastation left
your cities to be burnt.
Never to return,
never to return.

And filthy rodents are
still coming for your souls.
Never to let go,
never to let go.

Rats...

They're still coming after you,
and there's nothing you can do.
They're still coming after you,
and there's nothing you can do.

Rats...

3. Faith

There is a scourge
in the guise of sanctity,
a perpetrator with a quill.

Although it’s often
steeped in well spun mystery,
the accuser sends the bill.

I am all eyes,
I am all ears,
I am the wall,
and I’m watching you fall!.

Because faith is mine!

The Luddites
shun the diabolical,
a fecal trail across the land.

Although it stinks,
feels, and looks identical,
a pack of fools can take the stand.

I am all eyes,
I am all ears,
I am the wall,
and I’m watching you fall!.

Because faith is mine!

4. See The Light

Many a sin I have witnessed,
and in many indeed I have been
Many a rat I've befriended,
and so many a thorn stood between.

But of all the demons I've known
none could compare to you.

Every day that you
feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

Every day that you
feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

Drink me, eat me,
then you’ll see the light.
Drink me, eat me,
then you’ll see the light.

Many a mind I have haunted,
and in many a way I have been.
Often the one to have flaunted,
an image grotesque and obscene.

But of all these
dark roads that I roam,
none could compare to you.

Every day that you
feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

Every day that you
feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

Drink me, eat me,
then you’ll see the light.
Drink me, eat me,
then you’ll see the light.

Every day that you
feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

Every day that you
feed me with hate
I grow stronger!

6. Dance Macabre

You'll soon be hearing
the chime close to midnight.
If I could turn back the time
I'd make all right.

How could it end like this?
There's a sting in the way you kiss me.
Something within your eyes
said it could be the last time.

Before it's over!

Just wanna be,
wanna bewitch you
in the moonlight

Just wanna be,
I wanna bewitch you
all night.

It keeps on giving
me chills, but I know now.
I feel the closer we
get to the last bow.

I don’t wanna end like this,
but there's sting in
the way you kiss me.
I'm loving it!

Something within your eyes
said it could be the last time,
before it's over!

Just wanna be,
wanna bewitch you
in the moonlight

Just wanna be,
I wanna bewitch you
all night.

Just wanna be,
I wanna bewitch you
one last time in
the ancient rite.

Just wanna be,
I wanna bewitch you
all night.

Just wanna be,
wanna bewitch you
in the moonlight

Just wanna be,
I wanna bewitch you
all night.

7. Pro Memoria

Lucifer whispering
silently into your mind.
Who walks behind,
who walks behind?

Standing tall, invincible,
but do not forget your knives
to save your lives,
to save your lives.

Don't you forget about dying!
Don't you forget about your friend, Death!
Don't you forget that you will die!

Don’t you vomit savage slurs
spewed up wickedly
to hide from me,
to hide from me.

Navigate all alone
on this tempestuous sea
to ride with me,
to ride with me.

Don't you forget about dying!
Don't you forget about your friend, Death!
Don't you forget that you will die!

Don't you forget about dying!
Don't you forget about your friend, Death!
Don't you forget that you will die!

Lucifer whispering
silently into your mind.
Who walks behind,
who walks behind?

Had you had the chance today
you could’ve sold out too.
Ain’t that right,
Swede Saint Peter?

Don't you forget about dying!
Don't you forget about your friend, Death!
Don't you forget that you will die!

Don't you forget about dying!
Don't you forget about your friend, Death!
Don't you forget that you will die!

8. Witch Image

You Have never stood this
close to where you want to be.
You have always waded in the shallows
between me and the deep blue sea.

You'd never want me to appear,
you never want this to be over.
You never want it to reach out
to the edge of time.

While you sleep in earthly delight
someone's flesh is rotting tonight.
Like no other to you,
what you've done you cannot undo.

I have always kept you
closer than you've known.
I am riding in the shadows
behind you on a pale white horse.

You'd never want me to appear,
you never want this to be over.

Someone's flesh is rotting tonight.
Like no other to you,
what you've done you cannot undo.

While you sleep in earthly delight,
still your soul will suffer this plight.
Like your father in Hell,
what you've sold you cannot unsell.

While you sleep in earthly delight
someone's flesh is rotting tonight.
Like no other to you,
what you've done you cannot undo.

While you sleep in earthly delight,
still your soul will suffer this plight.
But like a mother would save
her own child from digging a grave.

10. Life Eternal

Can you hear me
say your name, forever?
Can you see me longing
for you, forever?

Would you let me touch
your soul, forever?
Can you feel me longing
for you, forever, forever?

I know the light
grows darker down below.
But in your eyes
it's gone before you know.

This is the moment
of just letting go.
She said,
"if you had life eternal".

Can you hear me
say your name, forever?
Can you see me longing
for you, forever?

Would you let me touch
your soul, forever?
Can you feel me longing
for you, forever, forever?

We dance once more,
I feel your hands are cold.
Within your heart,
a story to be told.

This is the moment
of just letting go,
this is the moment
of just letting go...

Can you hear me
say your name, forever?
Can you see me longing
for you, forever?

Would you let me touch
your soul, forever?
Can you feel me longing
for you, forever and ever?

Forever...
