Old souls waning in an empty ward Dimly lit corridors Wilted flowers and unread letters Abandoned in this hell No better than a killer on death row Fade from the memory of everyone you know They're in there sleeping in shit You're off sinking the piss Pull down the veil and forget for a while (for a while) When time is borrowed And the future only promises sorrow Forever you and I are The ghosts of tomorrow The ghosts of tomorrow Left to die (left to die) Guilt burrows deep in the mind Left to die (left to die) Drowning the shame that dwells inside Only grotesque neglect In this prison run by animals Mothers and fathers become Meat for the trash heap This is the evil that we permit They're in there sleeping in shit You're off sinking the piss Pull down the veil and forget for a while (for a while) When time is borrowed And the future only promises sorrow Forever you and I are The ghosts of tomorrow What God could forgive us? Living with what we know Old souls suffer alone We betray We deserve the fucking grave We deserve the fucking grave Ghosts of tomorrow
