The Ghost Key

Get me out of here before the walls start to bleed
The scavengers are gathering
And the nothing will exterminate
I walk like a living dead on the keyhouse-lands
I am everywhere and nowhere at the same time
From the tallest towers to the deepest caves
My battles at the threshold of the southern oracle
Have taught me there are worse things than death
The tunes of our homes are slowly silenced
By the choirs of debauchery
Whispering noises suppress desperate screams
The world's filthy noises pierce into my ears
The tunnels gashed out and the blood flows on my face
Who am i destined to be?
Do you enjoy this life filled with hate?
Because i hate my life filled with pain!
But my battles at the threshold of the southern oracle
Have taught me there are worse things than death
Tonight i'm gonna wake hell
To rise above the earth
From the deepest caves to the tallest towers
And heaven will collapse
Get me out of here before the walls start to bleed
The scavengers are gathering
And the nothing will exterminate
Once upon the ceiling glittered like the shining sky
Now it just stares blankly right into my eyes
The tunnels gashed out and the blood flows on my face
Who am i destined to be
Millions of teardrops rolling down my cheek
Swallow them with snot to feel the repellent taste of life
Get me out of here before the walls start to bleed
And the nothing will exterminate
I have the ghost key to the third gate
Get me out of here before the walls start to bleed
Because the scavengers are gathering
