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