	Story Behind the Song The story of Phantom probably began on the Internet. Peter and I registered the screenname Krauhe, based on the fictional character that I had created with James. I also created a screenname about the Phantom Stranger, which soon developed into Krauhe's friend. I haven't thought much about him, but I did know enough to make him the subject of an industrial song. This was influenced by Bauhaus's "Bela Lugosi's Dead", the Electric Hellfire Club and some Orgy. For once, we have a serious song. Lyrics I feel the blood inside my veins Coming to a slow boil An ancient force from the Great Beyond My spirit arises from the soil My second coming to this world I think I've been away for too long As I float across the dreary plain I hear the specters sing this song I am the Phantom Stranger I am the Phantom Stranger I am the Phantom Stranger A killer instinct remains in my eye I left this world too quickly I hear the screams of others gone Moaning in the dark so sickly Moving around the headstones To find where I can leave this place Glowing ahead are the cemetery gates I'm tired of being confined in a space I am the Phantom Stranger I am the Phantom Stranger I am the Phantom Stranger Free from my final resting place Finally, I'm in control I'll search the vast and open world Looking for some special souls Over the mountains and valleys And through the seas I'll brave To find the ones who are my targets The ones who sent me to an early grave I am the Phantom Stranger I am the Phantom Stranger I am the Phantom Stranger
