Light as a phantom
empty as my soul
when this is finished
the truth will be told
secret temptations
tug at your veins
as unworldly visions
enter your brain
your life is corrupted
by events from the past
you've tried to bury them
but they're free at last
you scream at the mirror
and beg God to take you away
he laughs, its not your time
you are forced to stay
PLEASE, you cry as you fall to the floor
and whisper your last phrase
quote "The Raven"
nevermore.

Light as a phantom
empty as my soul
when this is finished
the truth will be told
secret temptations
tug at your veins
as unworldly visions
enter your brain
your life is corrupted
by events from the past
you've tried to bury them
but they're free at last
you scream at the mirror
and beg God to take you away
he laughs, its not your time
you are forced to stay
PLEASE, you cry as you fall to the floor
and whisper your last phrase
quote "The Raven"
nevermore.
