The Phantom Lyrics

I live to awake you, you son of time.
As soon as I see you, you draw the lines.
Through chambers of delusions, your nurturing shadow,
you give me closure and shelter in fire.

A keeper of our needs
to wallow in secrets,
you hold no dignities
and redeem the speechless.

Prey on my mind, tell me I'm there
to rejoice in my misery.
Take my side, let me find the abyss
that I've faithfully designed.

The world is a snake and thou tongue is vile,
it swallows your guilt but then you die.
I'd rather speak with the phantom inside!

I dream of dominions
I once used to roam in need,
now ruptured and sunken.

The surface still bleeding
but I'll just pretend that
I have seen a world beyond.

The night is still cold
and I'm still deceived but
in the phantom I believe.

I live to awake you,
you son of time.
As soon as I see you,
you draw the lines.

I dream of dominions
I once used to roam in need,
now ruptured and sunken.

The surface still bleeding
but I'll just pretend that
I have seen a world beyond.

The night is still cold
and I'm still deceived but
in the phantom I believe.
