lyrics

There's something speaking from within me
Guiding me to do it's bidding
I can't see but I can feel it
Whispering right in my ear
It's breath is hot it's voice is chilling
Promising secrets if I'm willing
Heart is pumping blood to something
Hiding where there once was nothing

Possession, Obsession, one way to learn a lesson
Impulsive, revulsion, under control I must be haunted

In my feeble mind
By my flawed design
Finally a sign from a horrible devine
Feel it in my bones
Drags me from my home
Sticks my face in shit and tells me I'm alone

That Baba Yaga's calling my name from the woods
My feet follow her song
I'd stop them if I could
I'm haunted

By my shadowed past
Caught in my own trap
Now that succubus has got me sitting in her lap
By my inner child
Something dark and wild
Sharpened teeth take shape into a smile

Skeleton woman sends me searching through her swamp
To reflect on my regrets, to remind me what I've lost
I'm haunted


By what could've been
By my long lost friends
By a path that could've lead to a better end
By the soiled land
By my bloody hands
Cast out like a devil now I understand

Satan reaches out his hand for sympathy
He moves my mouth, rattles my bones
Makes his home inside of me
I'm haunted
