No hope of rescue
I'm trapped here alone
If I don't dig my own way out I'll die here
Gave my loyalty too soon
Now the forked-tongue piper's bill is due
Weather is shifting
So cold going numb
Through a pinhole of light, I see vultures circling
Bottom feeders pick my skin
Weathered brain a parasite within
Ego pulverized
No better medicine
Angels have been advised
Don't want no requiem
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
Gonna wear you like a second skin
I'll haunt you like a phantom limb...
Yeah...
(Solo)
Every new second
Getting harder to breathe
No matter which side I end up on, this ain't over
My regrets are many true
Still so much worse lies ahead for you
Ego pulverized
No better medicine
Angels have been advised
Don't want no requiem
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
Gonna wear you like a second skin
I'll haunt you like a phantom limb...
I'm trapped here alone
If I don't dig my own way out I'll die here
Gave my loyalty too soon
Now the forked-tongue piper's bill is due
Weather is shifting
So cold going numb
Through a pinhole of light, I see vultures circling
Bottom feeders pick my skin
Weathered brain a parasite within
Ego pulverized
No better medicine
Angels have been advised
Don't want no requiem
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
Gonna wear you like a second skin
I'll haunt you like a phantom limb...
Yeah...
(Solo)
Every new second
Getting harder to breathe
No matter which side I end up on, this ain't over
My regrets are many true
Still so much worse lies ahead for you
Ego pulverized
No better medicine
Angels have been advised
Don't want no requiem
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
I'll just haunt you like a phantom limb
Gonna wear you like a second skin
I'll haunt you like a phantom limb...

I believe the song references a persons struggle with the ups and downs of life, battleing things such as drug addiction, depression and other issues. I think these struggles can haunt someone like a phanton limb.
