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