Grandfather used to tell me stories and all the things he thought he knew
There’s something calling from the other side reaching out for me and you
Lie awake and wait for morning
What’s a blind boy supposed to do
As it goes, the things you told me
One by one, they all came true
As time moves along, I find myself alone again
Thinking of the words he said lying there afraid in bed
It’s so hard to comprehend he’s never coming back again
Nothing left to say for him I cherish all the time we had
I recall the fateful warning and all the things that I must do
I can’t forget the song and stories in my heart I’ll be with you
Upon your wake I feel so lonely but I recall the melody
You may be gone but not forgotten the flame it burns inside of me
He said the devil’s song is simply just a way
Of dealing with the things that shouldn’t be inside this place
Looking back, it’s so damn hard, it’s so hard to watch him fray
I hope to god you don’t end up like one of them someday
Now I can’t help but wonder where is grandfather now
Who can tell me where I’m going
Who can slow this world down
Never the lack of information
Never the lack of love for me
But now you’re gone I am just a burden on my living family

Afraid of the Dark
03:29
|

A noise within the darkness afraid and I can’t see
The night has much to hide just keep it tucked away from me
Isolophobia so scared to be alone although I was born blind
I somehow always seem to know
Within the shadows something waits for me
Evil is its own essence you don’t need any eyes to see
Within the shadows it knows when I’m alone
It eats the light just to subside its hunger for your soul
So let me out before they take me away
I can feel them creeping closer every single day
Just let me out of here before I slip away
I can feel them creeping closer every single day
Down the cellar stairs cobwebs seem to grow
I found my courage there I lost a piece of my soul
How many mornings came and no one heard my scream
Late into the night they rang but deaf they fell but unto me
All my life I’ve tried to seize the day
And now I’m here my deepest fear has locked me in this place
I am here my friend no place left to hide
You’ve been down here five long days
I have listened to your cries
Trapped alone in hell to find that you were right
It’s not your soul just the gift of second sight
Now go and see the light
When I came to the next day and I could see
Nightmares have now come to life
And always they’re affecting me
Isolophobia I never am alone
I see their faces late at night
They’re everywhere I go

Phantom

I slip between two folds both yours and mine
Travel the astral plane a spirit out of time
Caught in a world where only dreams will go to die
I’m eating all your energy
I’m feeding on your life
Caught in a space that you can’t see
Not lived nor have died
I’m eating all your energy
I’m feeding on your life
And now I will never set you free
Once your soul is mine
I am the chill of which they speak late at night when you’re asleep
I am the noise within your home when you think you’re all alone
So give yourself to me on your own free will and see
Everything you have ever known you’re slowly under my control
So now I am here to stay just let me ease your pain
A strength unto the weak I am the cure you seek
Just when you’re feeling safe by then it’s far too late
Mine to have and mine to hold for everyday that follows
Funny that you never thought to stop and ask me why
Outside time I’ve got you all swinging from my gallows
Nothing ever comes for free in life without a price
I am the cure you seek inside the words you speak
I am the one you need
I’m why you’re feeling weak

The Dead Are Here
03:17
|

Speak to me the answers in my sleep
Put forth the word that comes from far beyond my reality
I feel so weak endless monotony I can never sleep
And now the spirits they won’t let me be
And if you hear it too, I won’t be so alone
The dead are living in my room they’re everywhere I go
They haunt halls I walk the looks upon their face
How they love to talk they never said they’re gonna go away
To listen when they speak it’s not an easy thing
It gets so crowded in my mind sometimes it’s hard for me to think
I’m out here on my own nowhere left to go
The only voice I hear is mine
I know there’s something wrong
And if you hear it too, I won’t be so alone
The dead are living in my room they’re everywhere I go
They haunt the halls I walk the looks upon their face
How they love to talk they never said they’re going to go away
I see them every day
Never go away
The dead are here to
Speak to me the answers in my sleep
Put forth the words that come from far beyond my reality
I feel so weak endless monotony I can never sleep
And now the spirits they won’t let me be

Endless Stare
03:22
|
|||
Outside in the rain the wind is blowing hard
Lightning breaking endless gray illuminating up the yard
And through the window she sees him undisturbed
His body is hanging from the tree somehow transparently
And for a week no one believed
The apparition wouldn’t speak to her but left fear in the bones
Some say I’m crazy, yes, and some say I’m possessed
It’s strange to me you just can’t see the blood upon this dress
When the night arrives, my heart decides to beat out of my chest
The endless stare too much to bear oh won’t someone please just put this soul to rest
She heard the word of someone that she used to know
He lived behind her place he moved away three years ago
He was blind and fragile so scared to be alone
But that was then when we were friends now maybe he would know
He had the strangest family they told the oddest lies
But now the things I’ve seen with my own eyes I simply can’t deny
Some say he’s crazy yes and some say he’s possessed
I hope to god that he can see the blood upon this dress
When the night arrives, my heart decides to beat out of my chest
The endless scare too much to bear won’t someone please put this soul to
Rest in peace again I hope that you don’t mean me harm
Rest in peace she said that never blinking ghost out in the yard
Rest in peace again these last few days have been so hard
Rest in peace again that never blinking ghost out in the yard

You and Me

She came to me looking for peace but how could she have known
What was hanging from the tree outside
Too scared to speak her mind was weak
In her thoughts I’d seen all the things she’s tried to hide
Take my hand show me the way when the morning comes the ghost is in the grave
Hear my words say my name sing along with me I’m not the man I used to be
Words to the devil’s song will catch a soul and set it free again
Into the night we’ll sing my friend
We made our way to the tree said everything I’ve seen
All that’s come to me and all the things we tried to hide
Miles pass with ease, inside your company
No one ever seemed to believe grandfather’s lies
Take my hand show me the way when the morning comes the ghost is in the grave
Hear my words say my name sing along with me I’m not the man I used to be
Before the rising sun, a restless soul will be at peace again
Into the night we’ll sing my friend
Speak to me old ghost your time has come to sleep
Why are you hanging here tell what it is you need
Ten years ago, my friend, I saw my family die
That’s why I am hanging here
How could I have known that one survived
So now there’s you now there’s me and no one in between
Say you’ll be with me from here until the end of time
All that you see wrongs always been
Stay with me and I will do my best to set it right
Set it right
Stay with me until the end of time
Sing again with me tonight
Words to the devil’s song will catch a soul and set it free again
Into the night we’ll sing my friend

Consumed

You know it’s always something always something wrong
The more I give the more he takes I used to be so strong
Always beckoning to me as if I’m his to call
Even if I manage sleep, I’ll get no rest at all
It’s in my blood to question good in case of evil
All my answers are now riddled with his lies
I only want to help those ones out there who need me
But my gift is nothing but a nightmare inside this disguise
A nightmare in disguise
This gift inside my eyes
A nightmare in disguise
This curse inside my eyes

The Candle of Six Days
03:15
|

I’m alone inside this room with all he’s left behind
The air in here it seems to soothe I feel him by my side
There’s a candle that I swore to never light
That’s the risk I have to take
Watch the wick ignite
The flame is dancing on the wall the light is filling up the room
He’s answered to my call grandfather has risen from his tomb
I’ve never seen his face he sounds the same to me
Is this what I am supposed to do is this where I am supposed to be
He looked so real but this cannot be
A soul is never left behind once they heard the devil sing
He looked so real but this cannot be
Once the song is over won’t you stay in here
Stay in here with me
Listen here son of my son I brought this curse to everyone
Beware the phantom he’s the one that gave you sight
Bestowing eyes for his own gain he’s eating all the souls you’ve saved
He’s feeding on your energy until there is nothing left to take
Find the talisman I’ll guide you in our mind
And when the candle is spent the time is right

Talisman
03:53
|

Inside the cabin walls three doors down the hall
Beneath the wooden floor a box awaits me evermore
I see a guiding light it’s only in my mind
Oh but it’s always right for everything I need to find
The candle lasts six days and as it dissipates
I’ll find a way to clear my mind away to set it straight
The candle lasts six days the dark one he awaits
And without the talisman it’s such a wicked spell to break
And as the flame is dancing
I sense he sees my thoughts
He knows just what I’m doing
I know he sees our plot
And as the floor boards break I feel my body shake
The power held within it holds the key unto my fate
And when the lid is raised, I’m frozen in my gaze
The words in gold are beautiful tell me what do they say
The candle lasts six days there isn’t time to waste
I’ll learn the words and everything I know I have to say
The candle lasts six days and I won’t be afraid
Without the talisman it’s such a wicked spell to break
And as the flame is dancing
I sense he sees my thoughts
He knows just what I am doing
I know he sees our plot
Your eyes belong to me
I’m eating all your energy
I know what waits for me down there
Five nights left to prepare
Grandfather’s light he cannot see
I’m not alone he comes with me

Haunted
04:47
|

I asked her please if she would wait for me please wait for me
I’ll meet you back beneath the tree if I survive the night
After all it’s been six days extinguishing the flame
But now the time is here I’ve got to face my deepest fear
And down the cellar stairs I know that I can find him there
And if he shows himself to me, I know I better be prepared
If I live to see the morning shining light
It’s just the dawning of this god forsaken life
To live in peace the only thing I ever wanted
Peace may never come my life is haunted
With every step I take descent into the dark
I find myself in the same place that I was at the start
A feeling of despair awaits inside my mind
Those never-ending stairs are numbered as the sands of time
This can’t be the only way for me
But this is the only road I see
My fate lies before me
He knows I am here
He feels it in the air
My souls are all surrounding me I’m stuck in my mortality
I’m overcome with fear my fate lies before me
A vision so clear haunting this reality
He knows I am here he feels it in the air
My souls are all surrounding me I’m stuck in my mortality
I’m trapped inside this haze a sense of false disgrace
I know he’s haunting me the time has come to break away
I’ve watched for six long days the candle’s dying flame
I tightly hold the words in gold before I slip away
