[Verse 1]

Let me feel my palms around your throat

Let me see the pain of lost control

Let me hear your heart racing inside

Let me see the darkness that you hide


[Chorus]

When the night crashes down

(See) No vision

(Can you believe?) Derision

(Will I fall?) Down so far

(Into the deep) It's so dark

Ghosts will haunt my bones

(So, just leave me alone)


[Verse 2]

Let me taste the salt within your tears

Let me swallow hope; it disappears

Let me steal the mind that makes you whole

Let me peel a layer from your soul


[Chorus]

When the night crashes down

(See) No vision

(Can you believe?) Derision

(Will I fall?) Down so far

(Into the deep) It's so dark

Ghosts will haunt my bones

When the night crashes down

(See) No vision

(Can you believe?) Derision

(Will I fall?) Down so far

(Into the deep) It's so dark

Ghosts will haunt my bones

They won't leave me alone


[Instrumental Bridge]


[Verse 3]

In darkest night, I lay awakened with

These thoughts of endless black that never quit

The tortured thoughts inside my head, you see

They hide a mask of pain that's so ugly


[Bridge]

These ghosts come haunt my bones

They won't leave me alone


[Verse 4]

From my throat, the agonies emit

My demons wrestle and my thoughts conflict

The stench of bile, as I purge this hate

An inner struggle I can't separate


[Bridge 2]

These ghosts come haunt my bones

They won't leave me alone

Thunder cracks and dark furies sound

When the night crashes down


[Guitar Solo]


[Outro]

These ghosts come haunt my bones

They won't leave me alone

Thunder cracks and dark furies sound

When the night crashes

When the night crashes down

When the night crashes down
