Into The Lake Of Ghosts Lyrics - The Light At The End Of The World - My Dying Bride

Enter the ghost lake 

The waters whisper 

Of something brooding 

No way out of here 

Slow smoldering 

Slow smoldering heat 

Lapping at your skin 

Pulling you down again 

I wish that I could 

Fan back to life 

The dying embers 

Of my long lost passion 

Descending deeper 

With black as my light 

With twist and turn 

All me will be tried in life 

We look for light to call 

The call to save us all 

Lest we fall to our knees 

The death, we kiss his feet 

Oh, sacred mother, come 

For our fate is done 

In blindness do we run 

Always backwards 

The care of many 

Was lost in my hands 

The sickness came in 

Floods of torment and woe 

My withered body 

Aching and bone tired 

My Christ, who art Lord 

Hold me down again 

Knee bent and head held low 

Eyes closed against my foe 

In prayer I sing on low 

Answers to my last call 

Oh, sacred father, come 

For it is you who's done 

In blindness do we run 

And be sure not to fall 

Oh, Christ, what have I done? 

Ill fortune now will come 

Fire raining from the sun 

All virtue swept away 

In floods of blackest death 

The ghost will take my breath 

My sins, I will forget 

I am nothing again 

Exit the ghost lake 

The waters silent 

What now has risen? 

No man stands alone 

The world is changing 

'Tis misery who 

Leads our way now 

Holding man down again 

Knee bent and head held low 

Eyes closed against my foe 

In prayer I sing on low 

Answers to my last call 

Oh, sacred father, come 

For it is, you who's done 

In blindness do we run 

And be sure not to fall 

Oh, Christ, what have I done? 

Ill fortune now will come 

Fire raining from the sun 

All virtue swept away 

In floods of blackest death 

The ghost will take my breath 

My sins, I will forget 

I am nothing again, again
