Giving Up The Ghost

Icy road, blinding dark

Rolling hills in the distance

Open wound, a painful scar

Love has left its burning trademark

Off the grid, out of bounds

Further down into shadow

Darkest day and whitest night

In harm’s way

We’re chasing rainbows

Giving up the ghost

Giving up the ghost

That’s what hurts the most

You sever all my heads

You place them on your bed

Some part of your great scheme

To vow me into silence

Giving up the ghost

Giving up the ghost

Frozen lake soon will flow

Frozen ground soon to follow

But hey – everything is in your head

And what you killed was never dead

Giving up the ghost

Giving up the ghost

On what you loved the most

On a coal-black sea, the sky’s on fire

Failed attempts at a funeral pyre

Deep as dreams of dark desire

The flames are growing ever higher

You severed all my heads

You placed them on your bed

Some part of your great scheme

To vow me into silence

Giving up the ghost

Giving up the ghost

That’s what hurt the most
