Ghoulish Soul

Give me not time or day For my life is set to fade Dreams surreal into the realm I live as If I'm alone on film Kiss me not upon the lips Shun me from your tenderness Against the dawn dark prowls I taste of past and swallow now My body declines will my mind live My soul succumbs my spirit rived Into the black I seek light Borrowed wings I soar to flight Red the earth blue the sea Heaven above forsake mercy The gates are locked back I fall Spiraling down Hell's wall Dead faces refuse to see No prayers to lift me Blood streams from the wall Stain earth restrains my fall Devil nor angel free nor slave I toss and turn within the grave Beneath I hear the ground break Demon hands my soul take Into an abyss of roaring flames I hear the whispers wisp my name Against the will of my damned soul I accept and let it go Through mist of spirit vapor From Satan's lung I escape her As the fog kisses the shore Back to earth I deplore Haunting life I cannot be Taunting beings without mercy Taking down bitter souls I mock the gift my hands stole
