Lyrics for Ghost of a Soul

Way down to heaven Your needless resource It's a forecast of cruelty and dismay Cast into mirrors An ambush on its course You are blemish, frailty and decay Will I get at something Will I ever be complete Built by dust, born to slave away Taste an angel's life blood So pure and bitter sweet Buil of nothing, born to decay Deep in my mind there rests the ghost Of an innocent soul Capped by darkness and dismay Out of these depths I slay so cruel and so confident Will I ever be set free Lust prevails my temper Endless rapture turns to grief A silent scream which fraudulent arises Without shelter, your wounds lead me to lambency Spouts truth above your lies Step by step, piece by piece Cut by cut, we reach the end together Deep in my mind there rests the ghost Of an innocent soul Capped by darkness and dismay Out of these depths I slay so cruel and so confident Will I ever be set free Take this cloak from me, Your offer I will not embrace A failure once for me, not to be driven into hate Will I ever be set free Will I ever be complete Will I ever be set free Will I, can I, ever be complete? Deep in my mind there rests the ghost Of an innocent soul Capped by darkness and dismay Out of these depths I slay so cruel and so confident Will I ever be set free Be set free Come set me free Set me free
