    Ghost of Mother
    Lingering death
    Ghost on Mother's bed
    Black strands on the pillow
    Contour of her health
    Twisted face upon the head

    Ghost of perdition
    Stuck in her chest
    A warning no one read
    Tragic friendship
    Called inside the fog
    Pouring venom brew deceiving

    Devil cracked the earthly shell
    Foretold she was the one
    Blew hope into the room and said:
    "You have to live before you die young"

    Holding her down
    Channeling darkness
    Hemlock for the Gods
    Fading resistance
    Draining the weakness
    Penetrating inner light

    Road into the dark unaware
    Winding ever higher

    Darkness by her side
    Spoke and passed her by
    Dedicated hunter
    Waits to pull us under
    Rose up to it's call
    In his arms she'd fall
    Mother light received
    And a faithful servant's free

    In time the hissing of her sanity
    Faded out her voice and soiled her name
    And like marked pages in a diary
    Everything seemed clean that is unstained
    The incoherent talk of ordinary days
    Why would we really need to live?
    Decide what is clear and what's within a haze
    What you should take and what to give

    Ghost of perdition
    A saint's premonition's unclear
    Keeper of holy hordes
    Keeper of holy whores

    To see a beloved son
    In despair of what's to come

    If one cut the source of the flow
    And everything would change
    Would conviction fall
    In the shadow of the righteous
    The phantasm of your mind
    Might be calling you to go
    Defying the forgotten morals
    Where the victim is the prey

    And through it all, we wore the pain
    We held our own
    Through the darkest of our nights
    It's written in my blood
    It's carved into my soul
    Through the darkest of our nights

    Because if you couldn't stop us then
    What hope do you have now
    When you dragged us though the fire
    Did you really think that we would burn

    We're no saviors
    We're no saints
    We're no martyrs
    And we don't need saving
    I've come too far to turn back
    I've seen too much to play dead
    If this is all you got then take a deep breath in
    As I drown you out

    I'm on the edge, I'm leaning out
    But I can't see the sorrow for the pain
    It's written in my blood
    It's carved into my soul
    The sorrow and the pain

    So, you think you know the story
    Did you read it in the scars
    Because when you threw us to the lions
    Did you really think that we would run

    We're no saviors
    We're no saints
    We're no martyrs
    And we don't need saving
    I've come too far to turn back
    I've seen too much to play dead
    If this is all you got then take a deep breath in

    Don't mistake composure
    For weakness
    Don't mistake my silence
    For respect
    Don't mistake composure for weakness
    Don't mistake my silence for respect
    I'll burn your world to the ground then spit on the ashes

    Scorched fucking earth

    As I drown you out

    I've come too far to turn back
    I've seen too much to play dead
    If this is all you got then take a deep breath in

    We've been through hell and back so who are you
    To make me feel attack
    I've found myself beginning to change
    I'm turning into someone I can't take

    I thought we could put it all to rest
    Let the past go but I can't forget

    Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way
    When you're feeling low to make yourself okay
    Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way
    When you're feeling low to make yourself okay

    I've been focused on a life including you to be right by my side
    Pull the plug and watch me drown
    All I see is your lies now

    I thought we could put it all to rest
    Let the past go but I can't forget

    Can't get this out of my head
    And all I see is this sweat on your soul
    Now you're hollowed out

    Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way
    When you're feeling low to make yourself okay
    Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way
    When you're feeling low to make yourself okay

    I don't see how you look at me now
    Knowing I could never look at you the same
    I'd rather lie to myself at night
    And keep all of this hope alive

    I may be nigh, you're shooting low
    You took it too far, now there's nowhere left go
    I may be nigh, you're shooting low
    You took it too far, nowhere left go

    Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way
    When you're feeling low to make yourself okay
    Tell me all the reasons you treat me this way
    When you're feeling low to make yourself okay

    You'll never be okay

    The rage, the hate, the anger, the pain
    The memories that still keep me awake

    The love, the lost, the spoken, the thought
    The memories that tear me apart inside

    My rage, my hate, my anger, my pain
    The feelings that can no longer be contained

    My love, my loss, the vengeance I sought
    I am now compelled to unleash my wrath

    Innocence betrayed and destiny did forsake
    The pieces of a tragedy, laid waste

    And your blood I will spill to avenge what's lost
    You'll seek my pardon and I will not forgive

    From the pain I inflict upon your wretched soul
    You beg for mercy and I take your life

    Fear, you reek
    Suffer, you will
    Death is inevitable
    Time to meet your fate

    And your blood I will spill to avenge what's lost
    You'll seek my pardon and I will not forgive

    From the pain I inflict upon your wretched soul
    You beg for mercy and I take your life

    Fear, you reek
    Suffer, you will
    Death is inevitable
    Time to meet your fate

    I am the hatesphere, engulfed in rage
    I am the bringer of death and decay

    Of the everlasting pain that I inflict
    A man possessed, and I can't be stopped

    I close my eyes
    And find the strength
    To carry on
    Without you by my side

    I will go the distance, I will not recede
    My path is drawn and destiny beckons me
