lyrics

Living in a shadow of a ghost
The one you all love the most
Paint a perfect picture
One they can not hear
Let's forget the bad parts
Like they never faltered
Like they never faltered
Don't disgrace the dead
Just shame us all instead
Shame us all instead
Life is for the living
Life is for the living
Living in a shadow of a ghost

It's not fair to compare I'll never be her
I am me, can't you see I'm proud to be
If you could see the wounds that you all create
Living in the past, give me a chance

Give me a chance
Never feeling good enough
Haunted heartache
It does not go away
Every comment you make
Self esteem chips away
Self esteem chips away
Don't disgrace the dead
Just torture me instead
Torture me instead
I can't look at her face
Don't think I can do this
Living in a shadow of a ghost

First full lenght album by the band, preceded by the two excellent EP's 'Fault Line' and 'Reflections'. In line with their now characteristic sound and influences, October Burns Black deliver a great collection of tracks whose spell is impossible to resist. Classy and classic gothic rock at it's best.

fault line
by October Burns Black

supported by 7 fans who also own “Shadow of a Ghost”

New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough. m4rkos1334
