GHOST ON THE GALLOWS:
I DRINK DEEP FROM YOUR DYING EYES
LIKE I’VE DONE BEFORE COUNTLESS SCORES OF TIMES
WHY DO THEY HAUNT ME LIKE YOU DO?

I’M NUMB TO PAIN WHEN LIFE IS LOST
I’VE BEEN HARDENED BY YOUR GHOSTLY FROST
HAVE I MADE A MARTYR OUT OF YOU?

HOW SHARP IS THIS, YOUR PENTENANCE?
WAS IT WORTH ALL THE BLOODY DECADENCE?
DID YOU THINK YOU’D MEET COLD, HARD NOOSE?

BLACK LEATHER HIDES MY WICKED SMILE
OF A WICKED SOUL, AND DEEDS SO VILE
SO BLACK NO GALLOWS COULD EXCUSE

PRE-CHORUS:
I HOIST YOU HIGH ABOVE THE ANGRY SCREAMS AND FACELESS EYES
THIS MASK I WEAR BECOMES MY PALL
WHO HERE AMONG YOU DON’T DESERVE TO HANG AND DIE AS WELL?
WHO HERE BUT ME DARES TO ABSOLVE?

CHORUS:
GHOST ON THE GALLOWS
BEGGING, PLEADING, LOOKING DOWN
GHOST ON THE GALLOWS
BLOODY CLOTHES ARE FUNERAL SHROUD
GHOST ON THE GALLOWS
SERPENT COILED THIRTEEN-FOLD
GHOST ON THE GALLOWS
TORTURED SPIRIT, SINFUL SOUL

YOUR DYING WORDS ARE MUTE TO ME
‘CAUSE I LAVISH IN YOUR MISERY
FAR MORE THAN THOSE WHO CAST YOU HERE

THOUGH I LOVE TO HEAR THE SPINAL SNAP
AS THE NOOSE PULLS TAUGHT-CONSTRICTED-WRAPPED
EACH ONE I HANG LOOKS JUST LIKE ME

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

REVEALING ALL YOUR BLOODY SINS
AS I HOLD YOU HIGH, YOUR DEATH BEGINS
I WATCH YOUR CORPSE NOW SLOWLY SWAY

I BRANDISH DEATH LIKE ITS MEANT TO BE
ALL THE DAMNED DEAD I’VE YET TO SEE
I’VE NEVER WEPT ON HANGING DAY

I DRANK DEEP FROM YOUR COLD, DEAD EYES
LIKE I’LL DO AGAIN COUNTLESS SCORES OF TIMES
THEN I’LL HAUNT THE GALLOWS JUST LIKE YOU

I’M NUMB AS YOU, MY MIRRORED FACE
AS I WIPE ALL LIFE OUT OF THIS PLACE
THAT T MIGHT BE A MARTYR, TOO

ENDING PRE-CHORUS:
THEY PULL YOU DOWN AND PLACE YOU IN THE FRESHLY SHOVELED LOAM
JUST LIKE A DEAD AND FROZEN SEED
MY NOOSE IS STILL WARM FROM YOUR PREMATURE AND EARLY END
WHAT DOES IT MEAN WHEN GALLOWS BLEED?
