Ghost in the Gallows Lyrics


The genesis of provenance, bloodlines erased

The fate of the progeny to toil in the waste

Following extinct stars, the path deceased

Rites of passage that death has bequeathed

Curse these words that fade away

Cast into darkness, their meaning decays

Oblivious to the ebb and the flow

Leading the heart astray

Tear out the heart of a bleeding beast

Making mercy arcane

For every kingdom that has been erased

A ghost in the gallows remains

Torch every thread of heritage

Into the fire, into the fire

Drown the voice of a screaming human

Into the mire, into the mire

Corpses turn against mountains of smog

Lifeless and lurching to the end of salvation

The wicked they dance in a cruel celebration

The darkest hour of blood decimation

Lay waste to the horde of Hell's conjuration

Rekindle embers of unwritten tomes

That lay in the depths of the mind's catacombs

This communion of mortality

No longer bound to depravity

Tear out the heart of a bleeding beast

Making mercy arcane

For every kingdom that has been erased

A ghost in the gallows remains

Set these modern relics ablaze

Into the fire, into the fire

Immerse the crown of righteousness

Into the mire, into the mire

Corpses turn against mountains of smog

Mountains of smog

Rekindle embers of unwritten tomes

That lay in the depths of the mind's catacombs

This communion of mortality

No longer bound to depravity

Tear out the heart of a bleeding beast

Making mercy arcane

For every kingdom that has been erased

A ghost in the gallows remains

Tear out the heart of a bleeding beast

Making mercy arcane

For every kingdom that has been erased

A ghost in the gallows remains

Into the fire, into the fire

Into the fire, into the fire

Into the mire, into the mire

Into the mire, into the mire

Remains

Into the fire, into the fire

Into the fire, into the fire

Into the mire, into the mire

Into the mire, into the mire
