Requiem for a Ghost - The Murder of My Sweet

«Hhaa… wait a minute

I know that face!»

Michael:

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
