All hail the siren of our time I’m possessed when she passes by She drains the best years of my life She makes promises She could never keep
Ain’t it a ghost machine Making a ghost out of me After of all her lies I’m surprised that I still believe I swear she's gonna make a deadman out of me My ghost machine
Father forgive me because I know Exactly how I’ve spread my soul My idolatry is in the pocket of my coat I make promises I could never keep
Ain’t it a ghost machine Sucking the life out of me I’m still haunted by the faces on the screen I swear she’s gonna make a dead man out of me
Do you know yourself? I heard a voice call out We define ourselves By the things we can’t live without I deny that I could quit at any time
But my ghost is a drug My ghost is a drug She’s in my blood And I can’t give her up
The clock the altar of our time Fought the temple of our mind I’ve been sprinkling blood of most my life On the altar of my ghost machines
Ain’t she my enemy My ancient remedy After all her lies I’m surprised that I still believe She haunts me with her laughter in my dreams I swear she’s gonna make a dead man out of me My ghost machine
