Ghost Garden Lyrics


If the sun does dare to turn its face away

I will lend my voice to darkness

If I'm exiled from the light of the day

I'll walk the night with the assassins

In this world

Where we are lords

We tend to forget

That death is God

And only death knows its reasons

Queen mother, pure and free

I'm only leaving dirt behind

Enough to bury me

I've little time to spare

But a minute to decide

To taste the sweetness of the air

Or gaze into the other side

And the touch of the sun

Fails to arouse me

I trap my shadow in doorways

To leave it behind me

I laugh, blackout drunk, bleeding out

In serendipity

For I smiled upon abyss

And abyss smiled back at me

I'm coming home

I now know

Those who are leaving

Shed all the weight

They won't be needing

But if I go to war

If I go today

No-one here will love this garden

Oh, if I go to war

If I go today

Keep your given word

Tend to my grave

If I go to war

If I go to war

I'm coming home

I'm coming home

And the touch of the sun

Fails to arouse me

I trap my shadow in doorways

To leave it behind me

I laugh, blackout drunk, bleeding out

In serendipity

For I smiled upon abyss

And abyss smiled back at me

I'm coming home
