The dreams of others Wither by light of day When the truth's uncovered You will find me wasting away
A dark curse upon me Flesh bound to the whipping post Hunted and haunted Stalked by nostalgia the memory of a ghost
Beyond forlorn, the answers lie in loneliness Disease reborn, I am so full on emptiness
In the heart of torture Came the vulture's melody To grant my wishes A pardon from this malady.
A drop of poison Just a drop to call the armies off A chance for release For release is all I ever want
Beyond forlorn, the answers lie in loneliness Disease reborn, I am so full on emptiness The greed that blankets passion Keeps all of our grief in fashion And as the fervor slowly dies I damn my soul to open up the sky.

From this failing temple Draped in scarlet shrouds The starving statue Looks on and speaks aloud
Locked inside the famine chamber I am the prince of emaciation Under the spell of the coldest slender Grant me my wish, release the poison.
A dark curse upon me Flesh bound to the whipping post A drop of poison Just a drop to call the armies off.
Beyond forlorn The answers lie in loneliness Disease reborn I am so full on emptiness The greed that blankets passion Keeps all of our grief in fashion
Beyond forlorn, Stalked by nostalgia My memories are your ghost.
