Ghost Flowers

Otep · The Ascension [2007]

She's a killer..

She's a keeper...

Am I blurry

In your vision

Was I just..

A poor decision?



Cut me open

With precision

And we'll finger

The incision

Tell me what have I done?

Quid pro quo



To watch you lose

Control



I will give you sanctuary in these hymns of Thanatos

I will give you sanctuary



You want to see me burn

I am living fire

You want to see me burn

I am living fire



You will know me by the scars I bare

You will know me by the hate I swear

You will know me by the scars I bare



Shameless

Vengeance



We are the thousand children of death

We're in between on the fence

Nondescript antagonist

I'm in between on the fence

Non descript antagonist



I split you open

Climb inside

Lose myself

Eaten alive



We are the thousand children of death

From the seraphim, To nephilim, Exodus

She's picking ghost flowers from her soul

She's clipping the wings of fallen angels

She's picking ghost flowers from her soul

She's tonguing splinters of broken halos



You will know me by the scars I bare

You will know me by the hate I swear

You will know me from the scars I bare

You will know me



From gelatin, To specimen, To emptiness

I will be avenged

I will be avenged



These are the secrets

That kill

That kill

That kill

That kill

That kill

That kill



We are the thousand children of death
