A ghost Trapped and wandering A host Lost and wondering A conception Of a fatal reflection An unknown deception That spreads it's infection A specter who needs a confession To be known Not thrown Into the dark Hark Who comes to pass When a tortured man breathes his last But cannot speak his fears Horrible and grotesque were his years A torturer becomes tortured and true When I lay my eyes upon you I see through The fog that faintly filters forgettably Regrettably He dies And is trapped watching you Trapped in a dimensional center He is dead and gone now Nothing but a starry eyed specter

Starry Eyed Specter
A ghost Trapped and wandering A host Lost and wondering A conception Of a fatal reflection An unknown deception That spreads it's infection A specter who needs a confession To be known Not thrown Into the dark Hark Who comes to pass When a tortured man breathes his last But cannot speak his fears Horrible and grotesque were his years A torturer becomes tortured and true When I lay my eyes upon you I see through The fog that faintly filters forgettably Regrettably He dies And is trapped watching you Trapped in a dimensional center He is dead and gone now Nothing but a starry eyed specter
