lyrics

He approaches with a wickedness so vile
Tangled ‘round his throat to hide a vicious smile
Beard of blue and bloodshot eyes on noble face
Carve the key of grey mare’s bone, enchanted grace

He has such secrets
He hides them away
Never breach the golden door
On the hooks they hang

He consumes the flesh of those he has defiled
Dripping down his chin, the blood of all his wives
Beard of blue and bloodshot eyes on noble face
Grotesque and feral in his pure, unbridled rage

He has such secrets
He hides them away
Never breach the golden door
On the hooks they hang

Nightmares by the sea
Chambers sealed to me
Bloody from the grave
Ghosts of the depraved

You can’t help yourself
Curiosity
Just unlock the door—grasp the knob, turn the key
Hold your lantern high with such bravery
Shed the light upon chamber most unsavory

All his victims line the walls
Bloody footprints down the halls
With his dagger he slit their throats
Second nature
Death by rote

He’ll never let me leave
He’ll never let me go
Now that I’ve used the key
Now that I know

Beneath the serpent’s gaze
The fruit so ripe to pluck
Temptation of the will
The juice so sweet to suck

He’ll never let me leave
He’ll never let me go
Now that I’ve used the key
Now that I know

He lights the lanterns low and tells me I am mad
He tells me of a life that I have never had

There comes a clamor from above
The faintest whisper in my ear
The ghosts surround me as I sleep
And manifest my greatest fear

Mine is the next name on his list
Mine is the next life he will claim

Some things are not for us to know
Some secrets rob us of our souls
Some chambers are locked without a key
Desire, I am a slave to thee

His broad frame
His cold gaze
His stained teeth
His warm prey
