Ghost Machine

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
All hail the siren of our timeI'm possessed when she passes byShe drains the best years of my lifeShe makes promisesShe could never keepAin't it a ghost machineMaking a ghost out of meAfter all her lies I'm surprised that I still believeShe haunts me with her laughter in my dreamsMy ghost machineFather forgive me cause I knowExactly how I spread my soulMy idolatry is in the pocket of my coatI make promisesI could never keepAin't it a ghost machineAin't she a ghost machineI'm still haunted by the faces on her screenI swear she's gonna make a dead man out of meDo you know yourself?I heard a voice call out loudWe define ourselvesBy the things we can't live withoutI deny it, I could quit at any timeBut my ghost is a drugMy ghost is a drugShe's in our bloodAnd I can't give her upThe clock - the altar of our timeThe thought - the temple of our mindThen I've been sprinkling the blood of most my lifeOn the altars of my ghost machineAin't she my enemyMy ancient remedyThe gods of all the empty promises that I believedShe haunts me with her laughter in my dreamsI swear she's gonna make a dead man out of meMy ghost machine
