Paradise Lost

Obsidian

Heavyweights Paradise Lost delivers an alluring sonic experience with their 16th album Obsidian. Across a stirring nine-song sprawl, they showcase enough pulsating purpose, and fresh folds of their rich Gothic influence, to prove there’s still plenty to be drawn from that deep well. And indeed, the aura of those goth pioneers is present on songs like "Ghosts", "Forsaken" and "Hope Dies Young". It's the guitar melodies, the dark bass lines and often the spirit of Andrew Eldritch that has possessed Nick Holmes!

PARADISE LOST - Ghosts

[Verse 1]
Life endures, it serenades
Obliteration through wars
Unholy fire seduces
The undead lust withstands

[Chorus]
For the fire burns, deep within mistrust
For the ghosts, the ones to break me
For Jesus Christ
For Jesus Christ

[Verse 2]
Life is charged, prepared in rage
Fooled generations no more
Unholy fire reduces
The undead lust demands

[Chorus]
For the fire burns, deep within mistrust
For the ghosts, the ones to break me
For Jesus Christ
For Jesus Christ

[Bridge]
Could you feel the same?
Would you feel the pain?

[Chorus]
For the fire burns deep within mistrust
For the ghosts, the ones to break me
For Jesus Christ
For Jesus Christ
