Lyrics Nocturnal Rites

Nocturnal Rites

The Ghost Inside Me

I never thought I'd stand

On the edge of the world

Holding one foot off the ledge

And I can't believe I'd see

My life in reverse

Playing out inside my head

But I lost my compass

And went astray

Now I'm drowning in this hole

I'll come alive the day I know

I've rid all the demons inside

It never ends, it won't let go

Till all of my shadows are dead

And then I'll face the ghost inside me

I never knew I'd crawl

To the ends of the Earth

On my bare and bloody knees

And now I'm numb, can't feel

Though I know that it hurts

Like a thousand knives in me

In my darkest hour

I can't wait

I just have to face it now

I'll come alive the day I know

I've rid all the demons inside

It never ends, it won't let go

Till all of my shadows are dead

And then I'll face the ghost inside me

The ghost, the ghost (hey)

The ghost, the ghost (hey)

The ghost, the ghost (hey)

The ghost (hey)

I'll come alive the day I know

I've rid all the demons inside

It never ends, it won't let go

Till all of my shadows are dead

(I'll come alive) come alive

(The day I know) the day I know

(Ah, ah)

It never ends, it won't let go

Till all of my shadows are dead

And then I'll face the ghost inside me
