Living in the night
'Neath devils torn asunder
You call on me
To solve a crooked rhyme
As I'm closing in
Imposing on your slumber
You call on me
As bells begin to chime
Are you on the square?
Are you on the level?
Are you ready to swear right here right now
Before the devil
That you're on the square
That you're on the level
That you're ready to stand right here right now
Right here right now
Hiding from the light
Sacrificing nothing
Still you call on me
For entrance to the shrine
Hammering the nails
Into a sacred coffin
You call on me
For powers clandestine
Are you on the square?
Are you on the level?
Are you ready to swear right here right now
Before the devil
That you're on the square
That you're on the level
That you're ready to stand right here right now
Right here right now
Are you on the square?
Are you on the level?
Are you ready to swear right here right now
Before the devil
That you're on the square
That you're on the level
That you're ready to stand right here right now
Right here right now
Right here right now
Right here right now
Right here right now
Right here right now

Ghost BC - Popestar Lyrics

Nocturnal Me
In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realized our bigger themes
Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Do or die
What's done is done
True beauty lies
On the blue horizon
Who or why
What's one is one
In pure disguise
Of vulgar sons
Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Whatever burns, burns eternally
So take me in turns internally
When I'm on fire
My body will be
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realized our bigger themes
Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realized our bigger themes
Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Do or die
What's done is done
True beauty lies
On the blue horizon
Who or why
What's one is one
In pure disguise
Of vulgar sons
Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Whatever burns, burns eternally
So take me in turns internally
When I'm on fire
My body will be
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realized our bigger themes
Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

I Believe
It's the same old song that I always sing each year
But just because it's perennial doesn't make it less real
And I believe that you could be what I need to believe
I believe
Oh it just keeps coming 'round again
To just keeps coming 'round again
The conclusion I need is easily reached with you
You have given me all and there's nothing left to do
And I believe that you could be what I need to believe
I believe
Oh it just keeps coming 'round again
To just keeps coming 'round again
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
But just because it's perennial doesn't make it less real
And I believe that you could be what I need to believe
I believe
Oh it just keeps coming 'round again
To just keeps coming 'round again
The conclusion I need is easily reached with you
You have given me all and there's nothing left to do
And I believe that you could be what I need to believe
I believe
Oh it just keeps coming 'round again
To just keeps coming 'round again
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe
I believe you could be
What I need to believe

Missionary Man
Well I was born an original sinner
I was born from original sin
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin
My mother told me good
My mother told me strong
She said "be true to yourself
And you can't go wrong
But there's just one thing
That you must understand
You can fool with your brother
But don't mess with a missionary man"
Don't mess with a missionary man
Don't mess with a missionary man
Don't mess with a missionary man
Well the missionary man
He's got God on his side
He's got the saints and apostles
Backin' up from behind
Black eyed looks from those bible books
He's a man with a mission
Got a serious mind
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree
The missionary man he was followin' me
He said "stop what you're doing
Get down upon your knees
I've got a message for you that you better believe"
Well I was born an original sinner
I was born from original sin
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Don't mess with the missionary man
A missionary man
A missionary man
A missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
I was born from original sin
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin
My mother told me good
My mother told me strong
She said "be true to yourself
And you can't go wrong
But there's just one thing
That you must understand
You can fool with your brother
But don't mess with a missionary man"
Don't mess with a missionary man
Don't mess with a missionary man
Don't mess with a missionary man
Well the missionary man
He's got God on his side
He's got the saints and apostles
Backin' up from behind
Black eyed looks from those bible books
He's a man with a mission
Got a serious mind
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree
The missionary man he was followin' me
He said "stop what you're doing
Get down upon your knees
I've got a message for you that you better believe"
Well I was born an original sinner
I was born from original sin
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Don't mess with the missionary man
A missionary man
A missionary man
A missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man
Don't mess with the missionary man

Bible
The Earth was spinning all vacant and waste
And there was silence over the ocean
When a voice came thundering from above
The first day of light was in motion
And then the voice said may fruits be created
And seeds take root as they may
And no crimes were as yet committed
Life was breathing its second day
In his image this voice made a man
And a woman to love each other
They became the rulers of the world
And the third day was their mother
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Man and woman learned how to make fire
And the kingdom's walls were extended
By the fourth day the walls were reaching so far
No one knew where they ended
Now no one heard that voice anymore
And metal cities came to ascend
On the fifth day spring turned into fall
And a rain fell over the land
But no walls can stop such a rain
That keeps falling forevermore
I was told that by the sixth day
The Earth was like an open sore
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
The Earth was spinning all vacant and a waste
And there was silence over the oceans
When a voice came thundering from above
The seventh day was in motion
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Falling
I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created, and with them the animals
The birds and the creatures that move along the ground, for I regret that I have made them
And there was silence over the ocean
When a voice came thundering from above
The first day of light was in motion
And then the voice said may fruits be created
And seeds take root as they may
And no crimes were as yet committed
Life was breathing its second day
In his image this voice made a man
And a woman to love each other
They became the rulers of the world
And the third day was their mother
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Man and woman learned how to make fire
And the kingdom's walls were extended
By the fourth day the walls were reaching so far
No one knew where they ended
Now no one heard that voice anymore
And metal cities came to ascend
On the fifth day spring turned into fall
And a rain fell over the land
But no walls can stop such a rain
That keeps falling forevermore
I was told that by the sixth day
The Earth was like an open sore
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
The Earth was spinning all vacant and a waste
And there was silence over the oceans
When a voice came thundering from above
The seventh day was in motion
Now who will pray for Babylon
Sing a song to Babylon
On your knees before Babylon
Beat that drum because Babylon is falling
Falling
I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created, and with them the animals
The birds and the creatures that move along the ground, for I regret that I have made them
