The shadows creep in silent fire
Hidden way down inside with the darkest of desires

Throw your hands to your face and you cover your eyes
There's a fear deep inside that you don't realise
Your failings in life are the reason you're here

You light a fire at midnight
As a thousand voices call
And you feel your skin begin to crawl
When the shadows creep inside
From darkness of the night
Then the ghost inside you starts to wail

This agony is nothing new
From the dark of the night the voice is calling for you
Throw your hands to the sky and you open your eyes
There's a fear deep inside that you no longer hide
All your failings in life are the reason you're here

You light a fire at midnight
As a thousand voices call
And you feel your skin begin to crawl
When the shadows creep inside
From darkness of the night
Then the ghost inside you starts to wail

All the hands from the left
And the eyes from the right
A million shadows are closing in
There's a fire in the the hills
all of time's standing still
And every minute of life is an agony and a sin

You light a fire at midnight
As a thousand voices call
And you feel your skin begin to crawl
When the shadows creep inside
From darkness of the night
Then the ghost inside you starts to wail
