Lyrics
The Haunting
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.
Lightning flashes across the skyes
The hands of time keep falling like the pouring rain
Soft voices call my name; I've seen this place before
This whole thing is mad and still I can see
He awaits for me
As the knife cuts to the vein
Am I going insane? Have I lost my mind?
Ten years gone by, my friend, haunting me
Scars will fade but never die
Prisioner waiting out my time
Looking back through years gone by
My mind is always wondering what will I do
To seal a different fate,
Can I undo the things I've done?
I lie on the ground without making a sound
And cry for my life
Again
As the knife cuts to the vein
Am I going insane? Have I lost my mind?
Ten years gone by, my friend, haunting me
Scars will fade but never die
Staring down at me
Through my eyes I can see
All the terror and grief still lives on
I can't leave
Silver strand is pulling me back to mortality
As the knife cuts to the vein
Am I going insane? Have I lost my mind?
Ten years gone by, my friend, haunting me
Scars will fade but never die
