Old Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They are the ghosts of innocents
That have awoken from my dreams
Welcome to your nightmare
Say good-bye to every thing
All your past obscenities
They have determined where I stand
Echoing cries, in the time that it began
Hear me now
Feel my plea
There is no more time for apologizes
Never let emotions
Take hold of me
Are you ready to begin your trip to the other side?
Death is an old friend of mine
You can't escape your judgment
I hear them calling out your name
Do not beg for mercy now
You never showed any to them
Embrace your finally punishment
There's not a soul to hear you scream
I have to thank you for letting out the animal in me
Hear me now
Feel my plea
There is no more time for apologizes
Never let emotions
Take hold of me
Are you ready to begin your trip to the other side?
Death is an old friend of mine
The blood became alive
When I was trapped inside
And I can feel the dark passenger coming
My mothers blood and mine
Uniquely intertwined
Help me, finally, push your memory's from my mind
My hunger to destroy
When I was just a boy
It pulled me deeper into some thing that I now enjoy
The ritual begins
Evil will meet its end?
In your destruction I will finally feel whole again
There is no more time for apologizes
Never let emotions
Take hold of me
Are you ready to begin your trip to the other side?
Death is an old friend of mine
I have become your nightmare
Say good-bye to every thing
