Devils sing my song - i've been gone so long Dead inside - seeing sights unseen Now no other way - it's life and death Velvet and black - fight my way back It's all the same - it's just a game Knife in my back - abrasive and red Hear what i said - 'cause i've been alive And i've been dead You don't know how far you've gone Until you've left something behind I've cut my throat - slit my wrists And sold my soul one thousand times Pointless ambition - no resolution to my severed ties Lost in the madness - and wiped tears of blood From these crimson eyes Is it my destiny to rot alone with these GHOSTS OF THE PAST Thoughts locked away - now dull impressions We've gone so far so fast - the memories outlast Father time, if you can't heal my wounds Please stop the bleeding
