C
She reads to me by the
G# F
soft glow of candlelight,
A# C
speaking of angels and demons
G#
Instilled at such an early age,
F G# A#
with such fright, were these divine gifts of reason
C G#
I lie awake as her ghost
F
it still walks through the halls,
A#
and moves all around me,
C
Echoing warnings
G# F
burned into me as a child,
A# C
that the sinner will pay with his life....
G# F G# A# C G# F G# A#
C
Sheltered in filth,
G# F
the windows they all bleed black,
G# A#
to hide such dementia
C
Inside of my mind
G# F
or the mind that I seem to lack,
G# A#
no one pays close attention.
C G# F
I lie awake and I think of the simpler times,
A# C
before insanity found me
G# F
With a desire to unearth the dead in the night,
G# A# D#
making me feel so alive
A# G#
And now a part of me feels complete,
A# D#
when I butcher these bodies
A# G#
Trophies of skin they fall at my feet,
A# D#
all decaying and rotting
A# G#
Sick pleasures fulfilled to me every time,
A# D#
I bring home a new slave
A# G#
Mother said lost souls should all be saved,
A# C
'cept from a madman and his empty graves....
G# F
Screams to me by the top of her lungs in my dreams,
G# A#
like I'm no more than a devil
C G# F
As this hatred grows, I sorely feel a need,
G# A# C
that starts here with my shovel
G# F
Prying open the lid I can still see her face,
G# A# C
etched in my eyes here forever
G# F
I'll take you to my depths, and there I will desecrate,
G# A# D#
it's got to be now or be never.
A# G#
And now a part of me feels complete,
