Requiem For a Ghost

"Hhaa... wait a minute.
I know that face!"

Hey I remember vaguely
Shame, I may be mistaken
But you were in my dreams
I know you as it seems

Hey on the 27th
Say, we were up in Heaven

A chill came over me

You know me as it seems

From this nightmare

Gargoyles smile, they're pets of evil
Locust swarms are gathering
Careful as you watch where you step
The world will hold its breath

I've been waiting a lifetime

This odyssey seems eternal
Forbidden fruit ruins the order

Time after time repeating mistakes
Wasting away like tears in rain
He will be mine
Come rain or shine
I've been waiting a lifetime

So here we are again
One pure and one condemned
We shouldn't have come this far
But little did we know then
We're from worlds apart
I'm ready to give up
Surrendering all to you
Forget about my legacy for you
Please meet me half way there

Who watches the watcher?
Who makes the rules up there?

You own the light
I own the creatures of the night
The sing Hosanna to the sound
Of a requiem for a ghost
13: 18 you seek the answer in between
Within the lullaby you sing
It's a requiem for a ghost
A requiem for a ghost

It may not be too clear
What I've done I've done for you
The wrath was just a game
Now finally you see me
In the darkest night
You seem so far away
Is something on your mind?
Two wrongs don't make a right
The world needs you
But I need you much more

Who watches the watcher?
Who makes the rules up there?

You own the light
I own the creatures of the night
The sing Hosanna to the sound
Of a requiem for a ghost
13: 18 you seek the answer in between
Within the lullaby you sing
It's a requiem for a ghost
A requiem for a ghost

A penny for your thoughts

I've been waiting a lifetime
Our father in heaven

Hallowed be the name of
Your kingdom, your glory
Forgive us, forgive us
Thy will be done, but first he will be mine

Do you fear the dark as I fear the living?
Will the lies unfold
For good, for bad
In life, in death
For good, for bad
In life, with me you'll be free

Time after time repeating mistakes
Wasted away like tears in the rain
Time after time
The world in my hands

Who watches the watcher?
Who makes the rules up there?

I own the light
You own the creatures of the night
They sing Hosanna to the sound

You own the light
I own the creatures of the night
The sing Hosanna to the sound
Of a requiem for a ghost
13: 18 you seek the answer in between
Within the lullaby you sing
It's a requiem for a ghost
A requiem for a ghost

I've been waiting a lifetime

Hey I remember slightly
Shame it was all too swiftly

'Cause I was in your dreams
You know me as it seems
From your nightmares
