The dogs are running in the halls
Too near me
Soon they're breaking through my walls
They hear me
The snarling and howling
Of ten thousand throats
A promise in growling
The bite is their oath

She's in the corner of my eye
Too present
A chilling touch from far behind
Indecent
The kiss of the wasted
An unholy mark
Those lips I have tasted
Alone in the dark

There is no conclusion
There is no solution
And the answer's never what it seems
There is no resistance
In this fake existence
And this sin will never be redeemed
Inbetween


They've come to feed upon the life
Within me
They'll creep inside this empty hide
Unskin me
The shadows awaken
As my eyes are closed
I'm their's for the taking
No more than a ghost

CHORUS

A hollow frame - unburied pain
The ghost of me is what remains
The one I've been - the things I've seen
All fades away
inbetween

CHORUS
