The Ritual lyrics

Call of the wild has been

Draggin me down

Spirit controls what's inside you

Tears flow like blood

In a hot open flame

A sign of the fire inside you

We gotta give it up-We can't resist

We gotta get away

Time stands still

When your having fun

But you pay the price

When the day is done

Kindred Spirits come one by one

When the day turns black

We will become-

The ritual

Down in a hole

When the sky closes in

And darkness will fall upon you

Walk into the light

To be free from the spell

Let the ritual surround you

Is it at the rainbow's end

Out in the cold

Is just a breath away

Time stands still

When your having fun

But you pay the price

When the day is done

Kindred Spirits come one by one

When the day turns black

We will become-

The ritual

We couldn't give up

We still persist

We couldn't get away-no
