The Ritual

She tells me she's a spiritual Queen
I think that I'm inclined to believe
Alchemy in the modern era
Pills and potions everywhere
Pills and potions everywhere
Apothecary with the astral cure

Let's perform a ritual
Cast your magic spell
Mix the belladonna with the jimson weed
Help me draw a circle for the summoning

Distant Memories, Ghosts from your past
Turn to you and raise a glass
A lesson, a blessin', a fate, a curse
Point to the pain, show me where it hurts
Point to the pain, tell me is it real
Point to the pain, let me know how it feels

Let's perform a ritual
Cast your magic spell
Mix the belladonna with the jimson weed
Help me draw a circle for the summoning

Using necromancy to raise the dead
Waves and frequencies attacking my head
Chasing rabbits round a telephone pole
A guilty hand to take a hold of my soul
A guilty hand to take a hold of my soul
That guilty hand, is my own

Lets perform a ritual
Cast your magic spell
Mix the belladonna with the jimson weed
Help me draw a circle for the summoning

Let it all soak in
Where have you been
Where have you been
Let it all soak in
Where have you been
Where have you been
Where have you been

Sitting here, trying to meditate
It's all cascading, I can't concentrate
Lotus Mantra, dulls the apathy
Lost in a dream, Inside a dream
Lost in a thought in a fantasy
Lost in a dream, Lost in a dream

Let's perform a ritual
Something mystical
From a far off land
