Spoke and passed her by
Songwriter: Mikael Akerfeldt
"You have to live before you die young"
Keeper of holy whores
Devil cracked the earthly shell
Ghost of perdition
Foretold she was the one
A faithful servant's free
Contour of her health
Keeper of holy hordes
Tragic friendship
Black strands on the pillow
Channeling darkness
Everything seemed clean that is unstained
Pouring venom brew deceiving
In the shadow of the righteous
Winding ever higher
And everything would change
The incoherent talk of ordinary days
Waits to pull us under
Blew hope into the room and said
Hemlock for the Gods
A warning no one read
Rose up to it's call
Publisher: VILE MUSIC
Defying the forgotten morals
Ghost of perdition
Penetrating inner light
Road into the dark unaware
Fading resistance
"You have to live before you die young"
In time the hissing of her sanity
In his arms she'd fall
Faded out her voice and soiled her name
Blew hope into the room and said
If one cut the source of the flow
Holding her down
Foretold she was the one
Devil cracked the earthly shell
Darkness by her side
And like marked pages in a diary
Where the victim is the prey
The phantasm of your mind
Might be calling you to go
To see a beloved son
Ghost of Mother
Lingering death
Stuck in her chest
Twisted face upon the head
Decide what is clear and what's within a haze
A saint's premotion's unclear
Mother light received
Would conviction fall
What you should take and what to give?
Called inside the fog
Ghost on Mother's bed
Dedicated hunter
Draining the weakness
Why would we really need to live?
In despair of what's to come
