lyrics

Whispers of a thousand demons
Roaring in my head
Prayers of the dying
Wailing of the dead
I can hear the souls despairing
Deceived by empty words
Can't shut out the screams

Lies - fed me lies
As they raped my mind
The man became the gun
Life left behind
Eyes - gazing eyes
As I watched them perish
Faces long forgotten
Stares remain

I spend my days staring into the wall
No retribution, they won't leave me alone
The gun is gone but the memory remains
Forever haunted, the hollow man

Can't escape the nameless faces
Anywhere I go
Following my footsteps
Calling from below
By ghosts tormented never free
Where's the man I used to be
Still I hear them cry

Lies - fed me lies
Of eternal glory
How god forgives the sins
If you repent
Eyes - ghoulish eyes
As empty words consumed me
Reasons long forgotten
Scars remain

I spend my days staring into the wall
No retribution, they won't leave me alone
The gun is gone but the memory remains
Forever haunted, the hollow man

Hollow man - empty shell

I'm not into black metal. But i dig this. Fantastic lyrics, an interesting cover, real good musicians. Their music rather proves that the band has a certain talent for songwriting - but without ever being fenced in by traditional, "classic" forms. outstanding RATMAN
