The Haunted
"Downward Spiral"


Falling. Leaving my plague behind.
Cannot live this futile lie.
Resurrected. Immune to your poison.
The world that I see [has] lost its
creed [where] sin speaks through the
wicked hell repossessed by those
who burn with the guilt of being
born.
Trapped ! Trapped in this down-
ward spiral. A vicious circle of lies
Fuelled with revenge. Now I'm
repossessing what's mine
Another beating, can't move at all
With sweet forgiviness you'll take
the toll. Rise! Fight back! It's all
within the mind. Trapped ! Trapped
in this downward spiral. A vicious
circle of lies. Laugh at your foe. Now
I'm repossessing what's mine.
Thrust the blade. Into this corroded
world. Laugh at your foe. While you
set his spirit free.

Pain! Guilt! Hatred!
Revelations of a dying world. Raise
your fists in anger. Fight back !
Elevate in the hierarchy. Reserve the
line of command.

I've been burnt by the fire within
Fallen. Left my plague behind. Won't
succumb to the futile lies.
Resurrected. I will not give in.
Trapped ! Trapped in this downward
spiral. A vicious circle of lies. Hell
repossessed. I've been burnt by the
fires within. Escaping this downward
spiral. Free to breath again. Only to
return once more.
