A storm to break steeples is nigh I feel it in my deviant pathology The Autumn leaves no longer sigh But instead hiss an virulent cacophany Stricken in the dead of night Fear quickens me to flee or fight This otherworldly parasite Who stalks my very dreams Sickened by this atmosphere Blood's slickening everything in here Nightmares are hers to commandeer And furnish with my screams She seeks control So disaster will follow me Please free my soul Before her darkness can swallow me I tasted betrayal I was a fool I will never relent I am agony sent Vengeance in the still hungry sights of a ghoul The snow and roses Of youth have passed away Yet still she haunts me In truth I stay her prey Further down the rabbit hole I fall, feigning greater escapology But drugs do nothing but extol The here and now And not her venomous ghostology I was hers but chose Another for my own And everybody knows Suicide is for the solo... (Solos: Ashok, Shaw, Ashok, Shaw) My loved ones swoon to her embrace For them a tomb will soon encase Their spilled remains, the cursed chase Begins for me afresh Adverse Venus of these rites Hearse of perverse appetites Her thirst, it worsens and invites A creeping of the flesh She seeks control So disaster will follow me Please free my soul Before her darkness can swallow me I tasted betrayal I was a fool I will never relent I am agony sent Vengeance in the still hungry sights of a ghoul I tasted betrayal Misplaced and cruel I will never reltn I am agony sent Vengeance in the still hungry sights of a ghoul In the still hungry sights of a ghoul First a gelid whisper Then the candlelight cavorts in sympathy For where once it was murder to resist her Paralysis of terror stills the urge to flee The demon enters Swathed in a fell bestiality She, this vengeful wraith tormentor I pray the time has come for Hell to set me free
