Feed The Ghost
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.
From a place where dark days are common
Wild brutes
These dog days are coming
To a few this may be uncommon
Daily politics but ain’t no house of commons (nah)
Born leaders
Sworn survivors
From the gutter
In the grit is where you’ll find us
Separate the weak from the fighters
Presented as the minority with mass destruction behind us
No rest for the wicked round ere
Souls lost like the wicker man’s here
And I swear they got wicked man ear
Dem a gwarn wicked like they nah care (uh)
I can’t blame them
Looks like hope has forsaken brave men
Look to the skies and pray, amen
But no rest for the wicked no days end
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
And I swear they got wicked man here
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
And I swear they got wicked man here
And I still feed the ghost
This coming from a place where dark days are common
I walk through the grounds of sodom
They say reap we saw the fruits of your labour
But it’s like these laboured fruits are rotten
Death on the path
Till death do us part
Death of the heart
(Callousness)
Baring the scares of the pain of my past
Through the apathy translate in these bars
Locked in a cage fight
Face to face with my consequences
From decisions that I made
I
Felt like I would fall by the wayside
And not make it through the raging fire
It’s thin line between love and hate
Fear and faith
I situate in a lukewarm state
(Lord help me)
No rest for the wicked till we feel death embrace
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
And I swear they got wicked man here
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
And I swear they got wicked man here
And I still feed the ghost
Look behind the eyes and see
Someone else's memory
I'm taking to it easily
Someone else's you and me
We know what you do
And we see where you go
So look behind the eyes and see
Someone else's memory
I'm taking to it easily
Someone else's you and me
We know what you do
But I still feed the ghost
And I still feed the ghost
And I still feed the ghost
And I still feed the ghost
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
And I swear they got wicked man here
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
No rest for the wicked round here
And I swear they got wicked man here
