Phantoms Lyrics

I've heard the ghosts come telling stories

They're telling lies

I've seen these vampires in the sunlight

A thousand times

Just watch them try, let's lend an ear to

Their helpless cries

They want to get theirs, let them come

And try to take one thing that's mine

I'm building a new world

I'm building empires on this new religious ground

I'm waiting on your call

Sell now - you'll never be worth any more than you are today

With the moon in your eye, love never will be found

Till the shadows return where they belong

I'll drain the Earth for what it's worth

And trust me when I say it's worth a fortune

Let it bleed, let it flow

Maybe somewhere out there there's a name for people like you

But it sure as hell ain't mine because I sure as hell ain't like you

Maybe somewhere out there there's a place for people like you

But it sure as shit ain't here because we sure as shit don't like you

Maybe there's an answer in a book that we burned

But if they hadn't found it now then what the fuck have they earned

With the moon in your eye, love never will be found

Till the shadows return where they belong

When the reach of our excess exceeds what we can grasp

Then to hell with all the phantoms

To hell with all the rest

The ones that die alone

The ones that die alone deserve their death

The ones that die alone

The ones that die alone deserve their death

With the moon in your eye, love never will be found

Till the shadows return where they belong

When the reach of our excess exceeds what we can grasp

Then to hell with all the phantoms

To hell with all the rest
