I journey deep into the shadow,
Penetrating the skull ,
probing the mind ,
Peel back the marrow,
My instruments are never dull,
My skill and precision is infinitely refined ,
I take today ,
So I am promised tomorrow,

I am the ghost of your nightmares ,
From whom you seek relief ,
The one willed by awe and terror alike,
The malady of sickness ,
The striker of grief,
I am the one you dread ,
Shape-shifting in the moonlight ,
With armour of obsidian ,
Face of led ,

The ancient black light ,
Evasive undefined ,
The cosmic hunger,
I reject the bindings ,
I reject your time ,
The judge of all potential,
Shaping the dreams you live inside ,
I will what i wish ,
And I take what's mine ,
By power i crush ,
By will i compress ,
To cross me is to cross the abyss ,
I will steal your last breathe,

The cosmos knows no mercy,
Only law you are too ignorant to understand,
The rapture of your hearts ,
Is part of no divine plans ,
The Oath of the predator,
Sealed in black blood ,
Predated beyond all existence ,
Before fire turned to mud ,

I am the ghost of your nightmares ,
From who you seek relief,
The embodiment of darkness ,
The undefined diamond ,
Crystallised in spirit ,
Exempt from time ,
I roam where I will to be ,
And take what's mine,

I am that I am ,
Not defined by words,
But pitch and tone ,
The riddles of the infinite,
Are remembered in my bones ,
I am that I am ,
And all is not what it seems ,
I am the ghost in the nightmare ,
Feeding on your screams ,

Ok! My take is a little different:

Who spells it out
leaves my ear ringing
without doubt
without traces
radiating wonder

They all say
who knows the way
but who hears it
coming from you
like thunder

Our own mouths
can melt metal
but who can forge
an open secret
like you

Whisper me
homeless pearly words
when we meet in the middle
in the middle
of nowhere

Sing me
rungs of hollow-point
leaned against the new moon
by passerine nightbirds

Talk me down
from the siamese heights
and vault me
beyond the veils
…yonder
