Before The Dimming Light

[Verse 1:]
A threatening presence still wanders my mind. Roaming bleak corridoors of horror defined. Nightmarish figure avoiding all sight Strangely enticing in its own right!

[Verse Pre-Chorus:]
Memories of my past murders,leaving me wanting, and writhing in the cold.This prison surrounding, built of old stone and covered with wet mould.

[Chorus:]
A ghost in the darkness I am
A ghost, before the light!
A ghost in the darkness I am
A ghost, before the dimming light!

[Verse Post-Chorus:]
Awaiting my hanging to come, the punishment to tease me.
The noose to be fastened tight round my neck, will I rot before the gallows drop?

[Verse Post-Break/Pre-Chorus:]
My mind running to the gallows, where the drop awaits.The air is good for nothing.

[Chorus:]
A ghost in the darkness I am
A ghost, before the light!
A ghost in the darkness I am
A ghost, before the dimming light!

[During Break:]
As the midnight fog enters, I choke, but I am still alive!

[Post-Break Verse:]
My mind corrupt, drowning in a fog of depravity and silence
This long rope tightens tighter round my throat!
My body lies still, yet superstition remains!

[Final Verse:]
Suddenly, one last hatefilled outcry!"Your daughters sobbed and wept!
