Lights & Sounds Songtext
von Ghost in the Ruins

This road is my domain
The fog is familiar
The darkness so inviting
The cold kisses my face
But I′m a blank book
Disembodied voices expressing the wounds
I see the lights shining through the mist

Follow the lines back home
The scenes play in my head over and over
But a man with no name is never remembered
Nor does he ever live

Darkness dances with the light
I see the faces passing by
And they don't know anything
All of unaware of who I am
Follow the lights back home
Or wherever they take me


A figure glides on cue
In the dark I see a silhouette
Is it coming for me?
Now I see an angel staring right back at me
And she′s been patiently waiting
To catch my eye

It's all you know
Was it ever enough
To play this game?

This road is what I'm taking
It′s getting cold out
But I′m not shaking
This road is what I'm taking
It′s getting cold out
But I'm not shaking
I′m not shaking anymore

And I know there's nothing left here to say
And I won′t care anymore
So, take away everything
And I won't care anymore

From here I don't know
Where I′m supposed to go
And now it looks as if
I tied this rope around my neck


This is more than I can take
Is an honest prayer good enough?
What can I do when the world comes crashing down?
Maybe it′s much better this way
Maybe I'll be unearthed
And be worth so much more

Sentiment′s an anchor that drags you down
To the abyss

Love is an obstacle that I must face
I'll be leaving here without a trace
Don′t believe that I wanted to stay
It's much better if I walk away
