[Spoken]
And then the blackness loomed close up against my skin. Snuffing out even the evil whining hiss of those damming lips. Dragging all sensibility into retreat. In a mad rush in the center of the soul of Hades!
[Sung]
I forever dream within a dream
Of a certain city in the sea
As i walk the valley of unrest
Behind the mask of Crimson d**h
I long for a loss of breath
And a most dire predicament
Murders in the rue morgue
Darkness and shadows are what i adore
I can't explain just how it feels
The thoughts of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box i lie
With the hopes i'll be buried alive
The oval portrait upon the wall
Will someday cause this house to fall
The power of words left unsaid
As i join the spirits of the dead
I can't explain just how it feels
The thoughts of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box i lie
With the hopes i'll be buried alive
[Spoken]
Drag me down, down to a place of blackness and daftness and silence...silence...
[Sung]
Well im a man who's...
Used up
Washed up
Bricked up
Decent into....
Melstrom
Bedlam
Redrum
Bet the Devil...
My head
Misled
Bloodshed
The heart under...
The floorboard
Beats for
Lenore
Nevermore
I can't explain just how it feels
The thoughts of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box i lie
With the hopes i'll be buried alive
I can't explain just how it feels
The thoughts of my premature burial
Inside this oblong box i lie
With the hopes i'll be buried alive
