Title : Dementia
Eb B x3
Ab B Db
Eb
She reads to me by the
B Ab
soft glow of candlelight,
Db Eb
speaking of angels and demons
B
Instilled at such an early age,
Ab B Db
with such fright, were these divine gifts of reason
Eb B
I lie awake as her ghost
Ab
it still walks through the halls,
Db
and moves all around me,
Eb
Echoing warnings
B Ab
burned into me as a child,
Db Eb
that the sinner will pay with his life....
B Ab B Db Eb B Ab B Db
Eb
Sheltered in filth,
B Ab
the windows they all bleed black,
B Db
to hide such dementia
Eb
Inside of my mind
B Ab
or the mind that I seem to lack,
B Db
no one pays close attention.
Eb B Ab
I lie awake and I think of the simpler times,
Db Eb
before insanity found me
B Ab
With a desire to unearth the dead in the night,
B Db F#
making me feel so alive
Db B
And now a part of me feels complete,
Db F#
when I butcher these bodies
Db B
Trophies of skin they fall at my feet,
Db F#
all decaying and rotting
Db B
Sick pleasures fulfilled to me every time,
Db F#
I bring home a new slave
Db B
Mother said lost souls should all be saved,
Db Eb
'cept from a madman and his empty graves....
B Ab
Screams to me by the top of her lungs in my dreams,
B Db
like I'm no more than a devil
Eb B Ab
As this hatred grows, I sorely feel a need,
B Db Eb
that starts here with my shovel
B Ab
Prying open the lid I can still see her face,
B Db Eb
etched in my eyes here forever
B Ab
I'll take you to my depths, and there I will desecrate,
B Db F#
it's got to be now or be never.
Db B
And now a part of me feels complete,
Db F#
when I butcher these bodies
Db B
Trophies of skin they fall at my feet,
Db F#
all decaying and rotting
Db B
Sick pleasures fulfilled to me every time,
Db F#
I bring home a new slave
Db B
Mother said lost souls should all be saved,
Db Eb
'cept from a madman and his empty graves....
