Smothered by light

We find ourselves blindly following

Smothered by light

We find ourselves blindly following nothing

The ghosts that built these foundations no longer walk amongst us

Encased in stone and now forgotten we are forsaken

The gods that once we prayed for have moved on and left us all to die

The gods we prayed for never thought that we'd survive

You abandoned and left us to rot

You swore salvation if we followed thee

Now we beg you to look in the mirror

Now we beg you to see what we see

And now we wander this ghost world

Unshackled by the lies we no longer believe

And now we wander this ghost world

Without your love, we are free to be free

Phantoms and spectres nobody else sees

Bodies forgotten and left to disease

What feels like centuries have passed as we wander these streets

The sun blocked by clouds, pavement swallows our feet

Resurrect the dead, to take back everything we thought we had

Guiding lost to final rest, we forfeit hope in search of death

Enduring self-perpetuating rage to take back life again

Exorcise our home and take control, the only hope we have left

And now we wander this ghost world

Unshackled by the lies we no longer believe

And now we wander this ghost world

Without your love, we are free to be free
