Ghosts
The Acid Lyrics

The stars will shine in the tragic night
Despite the tragedy to come, the universe will continue on, unaffected by human suffering

The people will begin to die
Death and pain are imminent

The enchanted city will burn
The magical place once admired will be destroyed

Who will be this time?
Who will be the next to suffer?

Facing your god, pronounce the dirty words
Amidst the pain, call out to a higher power, despite if it is not socially acceptable

Let's get revenge, far away from here
Let's escape the pain and destruction and take vengeance elsewhere

I feel you dead, suffering again the agony
Amidst suffering, death may seem preferable

The fear begins in heaven, go fuck yourself
Even those who are supposed to bring comfort cannot offer it, leading to a sense of hopelessness

The virgin and her ghost
A ghost haunting someone who is pure or innocent

Crying his death
Grieving the loss of a loved one

Facing your god, facing the holy ghost
Acknowledging the presence of a higher power and seeking guidance

Let's make a trip, far away from land
Let's escape the pain and find solace elsewhere

Let me see you naked, under the skin
Let me see the real you, beyond surface level appearance

The panic begins in heaven, go fuck yourself
Even the divine feels the strife, unable to offer relief

I wanna hear you say stop
I want the pain to end

In the name of the father
Crying out to a higher power to make things right

In the name of the son
Believing that sacrifice and resurrection can bring hope and salvation

In the name of the holy ghost
Seeking comfort and guidance from the divine

His punishment!
Seeking retribution for wrongs committed

In the name of the Satan
Desperately calling out to even evil forces for relief

In the name of the Judas
Referencing someone who betrayed a loved one for personal gain, perhaps representing the pain inflicted by those closest to us

In the name of the holy death
Acknowledging the inevitability of death and the potential for salvation in the afterlife

His punishment!
Seeking justice through any means possible
