Intro
Verse 1
Let's Start Off The Tale With Reluctant Confession,
I Didn't Know Love Till It Taught Me A Lesson,
I Hid From The Dark That Was Too Dark To Mention,
I'll Just Say That The Demons Were Dancing.
Verse 2
I Got Scars On My Mind That I'm Careful To Cover,
It's Proof Of A Life And The Proof Of A Lover,
The Calluses Tell Me There Won't Be Another,
I Just Pray The Pain Ain't Everlasting,
Take Away The Pain.
Chorus
I'm The Ghost Of Black Wa-Ter,
I'll Atone For My Sins, Every Soul I Guide Home,
It's The Best I Can Of-Fer,
Now I Envy The Courage That She Had To Lеave Me Behind.
Post-Chorus
She Holds The Light, She Holds The Light . . ..
Verse 3
Like Salt On A Wound, I'm Just Bound To My Tower,
Watching The Waves Over Years, Over Hours,
The White Horses, They Knock At The Door Of This Coward,
While I'm Too Scared To Go Down And Answer.
Verse 4
I Watch From The Pier As The Storm Passes Over,
Tears Come And Go, She Don't Get Any Closer,
The Weight Of The Words, I Was Too Scared To Tell Her,
Now It's More Than Regret, It's A Monster,
Oh, It's More Than Regret.
Chorus
I'm The Ghost Of Black Wa-Ter,
I'll Atone For My Sins, Every Soul I Guide Home,
It's The Best I Can Of-Fer,
Now I Envy The Courage That She Had To Lеave Me.
Post-Chorus
I'm So Tired Of This Dreaming,
I Can't Help But To Curse Every Soul With A Home,
Now I'm Left With My De-Mons,
And I'll Envy The Shadows That Cling To Her All Through The Night.
Bridge
She Holds The Light, She Holds The Light . . .,
She Holds The Light, She Holds The Light . . .,
She Holds The Light, She Holds The Light . . .,
She Holds The Light, She Holds The Light . . ..
Chorus
I'm The Ghost Of Black Wa-Ter,
I'll Atone For My Sins, Every Soul I Guide Home,
It's The Best I Can Of-Fer,
Now I Envy The Courage That She Had To Lеave Me.
Post-Chorus
I'm So Tired Of This Dreaming,
I Can't Help But To Curse Every Soul With A Home,
Now I'm Left With My De-Mons,
All I'll Envy The Shadows And The Memories That Linger,
And Cling To Her All Through The Night.
Outro
She Holds The Light, She Holds The Light . . ..
