On the edge of eighteen, on the dusk of winter She finally freed herself She turned the last page of the book of horrors And put it back on its shelf Her long-lost passion had deceased And lies could no longer help Her gloomy eyes gleamed when she turned the beast Into a whining whelp Ten years free from the careless torturer And his diamond-paved hell In no way could she be duped by his wimpers And pain could not be quelled How many times had she been sacrificed On the altar of crooked love? In how many pieces was her heart sliced By the vulture masked as a dove? Raped, forced, tricked, threatened, and abused In the name of ignorant passion Her fulfillments and ideals reduced Falling into oblivion Trapped and cornered, dazed and confused In tyrannical male possession The gaslight that formerly seduced Was her brain-biting poison Does it remind something to any of you? How many monsters concealed within you? Think this through... On the edge of eighteen, on the dusk of winter She finally came back to life A phoenix out of ashes, stronger Warned of the upcoming strifes Ten years it's been since the book of horror Has turned its last vile page Ten years away from the persecutor Away from his golden cage Ten years free from her raper And the horrid proofs of "love" Ten years free from the dictator Wearing velvet gloves Ten years free from the horror, The intense shame, the infamy Ten years free from the monster Ten years free from me

The world's disappointing I won't disappoint them I can't hurt their feelings And these ghosts haunt my fears Never deceiving Never deceive them I'm there, home, sitting And there they appear When I float, awaken, under guilt sparks They immerse me deep Comforting me after dark Enabling my sleep [CHORUS] They won't ever leave me alone They won't ever give up on me My friends, the ghosts Relying on them when I'm on my own Rather than keeping my sanity My friends, the ghosts When I'm disappointing They won't disappoint me The world can be frightening My haunters are friendly They entertain, they comfort me When I'm in pain and misery They all maintain with delusions and tricks Peace in my brain, brick by brick Along the cliff edge, sharp and stark Its sides so steep They all comfort me after dark Preventing the leap [CHORUS] They won't ever leave me alone They won't ever give up on me My friends, the ghosts Relying on them when I'm on my own Rather than keeping my sanity My friends, the ghosts Friendly ghosts Lifelong guards Beside their host Me, the bastard My friends, the ghosts
