Ghost B.C. - Meliora Album Lyrics

Spirit

Throw yourself
Into the smoke
Of possibilities

Your clean noose
The apparatus
Force over ability
A gateway to secrecy

Spirit, Absent
Spirit, Absent

Seven seals
Devilish Creatures
Confess the end of time

Cloven Hooves
And I save wormwood
Catapult to your mind
Into the chalice of death

Spirit, Absent
Spirit, Absent

There's no return
From this excursion
Of possibilities
You're at the center of fate

Spirit, Absent
Spirit, Absent

And none of this earth inherit
The expression of my spirit

From The Pinnacle To The Pit

You have the power
You wear the crown
From the pinnacle
To the pit

It is a long way down

You wield the scepter
You wear the gown
From the pinnacle
To the pit

It is a long way down

In your empire
They stare and frown
From the pinnacle
To the pit

It is a long way down

You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You will wear your independence like a crown

Cruciger globus
You stand your ground
The orbus figure
What's flat looks round
From the pinnacle
To the pit

It is a long way down

You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You are cast out from the heavens to the ground
Blackened feathers falling down
You will wear your independence like a crown

Cirice

I feel your presence amongst us
You cannot hide in the darkness
Can you hear the rumble?
Can you hear the rumble that's calling?

I know your soul is not tainted
Even though you've been told so
Can you hear the rumble?
Can you hear the rumble that's calling?

I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you
I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you

A candle casting a faint glow
You and I see eye to eye
Can you hear the thunder?
Can you hear the thunder that's breaking?

Now there is nothing between us
From now our merge is eternal
Can't you see that you're lost?
Can't you see that you're lost without me?

I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you
I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you

Can't you see that you're lost without me?

I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you
I can feel the thunder that's breaking in your heart
I can see through the scars inside you

He Is

We're standing here by the abyss and the world is in flames.
Two star-crossed lovers reaching out to the beast with many names.

He is
He's the shining and the light without whom I cannot see.
And he is
Insurrection, he is spite, he's the force that made me be.
He is
Nostro dis pater, nostr' alma mater.
He is.

We're hiding here inside a dream and all our doubts are now destroyed.
The guidance of the morning stars will lead the way into the void.

He is
He's the shining and the light without whom I cannot see.
And he is
Insurrection, he is spite, he's the force that made me be.
He is
Nostro dis pater, nostr' alma mater.
He is.

He is
He's the shining and the light without whom I cannot see.
And he is
Insurrection, he is spite, he's the force that made me be.
He is
He's the shining and the light without whom I cannot see.
And he is
The disobedience that holds us together.
He is
Nostro dis pater, nostr' alma mater.
And we are falling over the precipice.

Mummy Dust

I was carried on a wolf's back
Here to corrupt humanity
I will pommel it with opulence
With corpulence and greed
In god you trust

My mummy dust
My mummy dust

Your cavalier of crapulence
To this feast of rapacity
I will bury you in treasures
Just to feed your incapacity
In god you trust

My mummy dust
My mummy dust

You are the possessée of avarice
I am the ruler of the earth
I will smother you in riches
Until you choke in sordid mirth

You are summoned in cupidity
Purulence and lust
I am the magnet for stupidity
Divine you feel my thrust
In god you trust

My mummy dust
My mummy dust

In god you trust

Majesty

A higher power underground
From seraph skies and now to chaos bound
He's sitting sacred and profound
In midst of sinners lifting up to kiss his crown

Pathetic humans in despair
Defaced, deflowered, now to death devout
A fallen angel in His lair
In midst of sinners kneeling down before his clout

Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within
Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within you

This oasis is a poison well
Of rotting carcasses that clog the deep
A prince in exile here in Hell
In midst of sinners flocking up like soulless sheep

Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within
Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within you

Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within
Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within you

Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within
Old One,
Master
All beauty lies within you

...Your Infernal Majesty

Absolution

Ever since you were born you've been dying
Every day a little more you've been dying
Dying to reach the setting sun

As I child, with your mind on the horizon
All the [?] you keep your eyes on
Trying to be the chosen one

All those things that you desire
You will find there in the fire

Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution

Even now when you hear you were under
Hysterically seeking out what needs to prove it
And you're still asking for the sun

All those things that you desire
You will find there in the fire

Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution

You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry
You'll cry

Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution

Put your hands up and reach for the sky
Cry for absolution
You'll be down on your knees and you'll cry
Cry for absolution

Deus In Absentia

Ain't this your time of need?
You're turning to the light
You had just begun to explore the dark
In the urban night

The world is on fire
And you are here to stay and burn with me
A funeral pyre
And we are here to revel forever more

You're so godamn frail
Failing for a change
You just had to know all about the world
But you will never know
'Cause no one ever told you how

The world is on fire
And you are here to stay and burn with me
A funeral pyre
And we are here to revel forever

The world is on fire
And we are tied as one eternally
A funeral pyre
And we are here to revel forever more

All of your imaginations
Are now running down your face
All of your imaginations
Are now running down your face

Oh you are looking good
Payback in disgrace
And you are doing fine worshipping your lord
Standing in his grave
'Cause no one ever told you how

The world is on fire
And you are here to stay and burn with me
A funeral pyre
And we are here to revel forever

The world is on fire
And we are tied as one eternally
A funeral pyre
And we are here to revel forever more
