Lyrics for The Seed Of A Lie

I'm a ghost in the dark and I'm yours. I belong in the past and I'm yours. Like a song you forget, and I'm yours. Like a dream in the night, and I'm yours. The wrong place? The wrong time? I don't know. The wrong face? Yours or mine? I don't know. Like a tear when you sleep, I'll be yours. Like a scar that won't fade, I'll be yours. Like a pain in the cold, I'll be yours. Like a fear in the heart, I'll be yours. The wrong word when you cry I will be Like the seed of a lie I will be Like the germ of disease I will be Like the last one who cared I will be Like your shadow I will haunt you Do you remember? I said to you 'Love is a mountain But harder to climb. It should be forever But love is unkind To me. Don't let me down.' And you let me down.
