Éphémère - Ghost In The Shell

''End me'', that's what I said
Before I tasted a second breath
The darkest opus of a life finally erased
''Waste me'', just like I did
Another soul not worth saving
''Let the bones in me just break", that's what I said

The redemption of a faceless man
Once the king of nothing
A weak-minded man
Half a heart and a life lived in vain
A ghost in a shell

There I was, drifting through the stars and the emptiness
My body perfectly still, but deep inside, engulfed in rage
Forever and ever alone within
Frozen by fear and an unreachable bliss
There I layed in the nothingness I felt in
Ready to turn to stone or let my ashes blow to the wind
I'd be waiting for something to take my soul
To let me die and leave my body cold

Who would have believed in me
That I could sing from the grave
So alive in a coffin
Surrounded by my rotting shell

Martyr of my own hands
Dead inside
Floating between dream and nightmare
An eye so blind
Crippled mind
I won't submit to this life any more
