Haunted by the shadows that follow close behind Why must they linger, why must they remind him? What are they hoping to find? The unforgiving darkness, the cold and bitter wind With nowhere to go, no place left to call home He and loneliness soon become friends Her hair, her eyes, unforgettable lies A story untold left to burn in the fire His pain, his grin, unforgivable sin Now her face just a ghost from within Beyond the flickering lantern Amid the dancing flame A harrowing voice echoes out in the dark As a warning, it whispers his name Run, run faster past her haunting gaze Feel, reel in the guiltiness you can't escape Burn, burn with the scorching feelings of regret Kneel, kneel in forgiveness that you beg Without any warning came forth a silhouette Shaking in fear as her face reappeared Blood red lips smiled softly and said: "I will haunt you always" "I'll follow close behind" "Always I'll linger, a constant reminder" "A voice in the back of your mind"
