"Spillways" lyrics - GHOST

GHOST
"Spillways"

Through benediction, you tried to rid your mind
Of malediction,, but through all this time
You try to peel it off and it's such a ride
Your desolation led you into this
Vile incarnation of consummated bliss
I know you need it now to make you feel alive

[Pre-Chorus:]
All your faith, all your rage, all your pain
It ain't over now and I ain't talking about forgiveness
All your faith, all your rage, all your pain
It ain't over now

[Chorus:]
It's the cruel beast that you feed
It's your burning yearning need to bleed
Through the spillways
(Spillways)

You keep a casket buried deep within
You try to mask it, but fall back in sin
You want to shake it off, but you're stuck inside
When stripped of rags of skin and spine
Human decay, Corpus Dei, terminally dispelled
And it's such a ride

[Pre-Chorus:]
All your faith, all your rage, all your pain
It ain't over now and I ain't talking about forgiveness
All your faith, all your rage, all your pain
It ain't over now

[Chorus:]
It's the cruel beast that you feed
It's your burning, yearning need to bleed
Through the spillways
Through the spillways (Of your soul)
Through the spillways
(Spillways, spillways)

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
It's the cruel beast that you feed
It's your burning, yearning need to bleed
Through the spillways
Through the spillways (Of your soul)

[Outro:]
Through the spillways
Through the spillways (Of your soul)
Through the spillways
Through the spillways (Of your soul)
Through the spillways
Through the spillways (Of your soul)
