Ministry Of Lost Souls Lyrics

The water's edge is where she waits

Lost souls still wandering

Meant to die

But she's stuck not crossing over



The other side is where he waits

His spirit reaching out

Meant to save

But she's too scared to take his hand



Living in a world without you

Drowning in the past

Is living in no world at all

So now I call on you



Remember me? I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering was all in vain, it's almost over now

Don't turn your back on paradise



Feeling scared, she's prepared

To give up everything

She can't stand to feel

Like half of her is fading



He will choose the only way

To rid her of her pain

Take her soul now

The decision has been made



Living in a world without love

A burden to my soul

Is living in a worthless world

So I will call on you



Remember me? I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering was all in vain

It's almost over



Remember me? You were so young

How could I tell you?

Remember me? I am the one

Who saved your life that night



I was the one who would not abandon you

Even in death I was the one who would not leave you

I used my freedom to protect you

And all the while direct you



Do you remember me this time?

Even in death I gave you life, I gave you life



Wanted to deserve a place

A place beside you

This time when I reached out my hands

It reached all the way to heaven



Remember me? I gave you life

You would not take it

Your suffering was all in vain

It's almost over now, goodbye

It's almost over now, goodbye



It's time

I release you from this life

Don't turn your back on paradise
