Mansion Memory
03:05
|
|||
|
Once I walked it’s pale halls; flickering figures filled walls.
Now they’ve torn it all down to a patch in the ground where the Fall King was crowned.
Please; listen to me!
They’ll have to lock me away for the end of my days ’till I’m willing to say it was never real.
Once where we worshipped in moonlight now there is only a sad sight.
Return me to the century where my mansion memory lives,
and curse the ones who sent me to a weird and witchy end.
And when the memories call I see the images crawl across the ceiling into the evening.
Please, let me return to that time…

The Singing Grave
03:10
|
|||
|
There’s a tune that lives in the dead of night, and the chill it gives makes you feel alright.
You can hear it ring like a rusty bell; sit and hear it sing from the mouth of Hell.
Would you feel so blue? Would you feel so brave, if I sit with you by the singing grave?
Can’t you hear the tears? Can’t you see the shape reaching out to you from the singing grave?
See the faceless form rising from the stone. Sure as you are born, you die alone.
Can’t you hear the moans leading us the way to the overgrown, lonely singing grave?
Would you feel so blue? Would you feel so brave, if I sit with you by the singing grave?
Can’t you hear the tears? Can’t you see the shape reaching out to you from the singing grave?

Witch Walking
03:27
|
|||
|
Take a look outside, passing the sleeping people;
lone she takes her stride, silhouette grim in the night.
Witch walking, image of black and white.
Witch walking, filling my mind with fright.
Lock your doors and hide, all of you fearful people;
soon she’ll start to glide into the night like a kite.
Witch walking, image of black and white.
Witch walking, filling my mind with fright.

Marijuana Eyes
02:37
|
|||
|
Me taking a trip to shining moon high, sitting on Fairlawn’s shadowed shoulder.
Me mumbling nothing; “koo-koo, aye-o, goo-gobble-goob-jib-job… marijuana!”
Can you see through my marijuana eyes?
My name is cemetery keeper; me digging the graves and planting flowers.
Me mumbling nonsense; “koo-koo, aye-o, goo-gobble-goob-jib-job… marijuana!”
Can you see through my marijuana eyes?
Lizard images connect my eyeballs to my stomach and testicles;
Sitting behind E-Z Food and feeling so sick.
Can you see through my marijuana eyes?

Storm Crier
03:24
|
|||
|
We’ll stroll old lanes as the sunset looms; we hear and chase down the storm crier’s tune.
He’ll make a magick dance, he'll call the clouds a liar;
they’ll darken with a glance of the storm crier.
He’ll wave one hand to the sky of flame, and cast the land in a rainy shade.
He’ll make a magick dance, he'll call the clouds a liar;
they’ll darken with a glance of the storm crier.
The embers of the day will glow like fire,
blazing in the gaze of the storm crier.
Evening begins to shine the night shroud of one million eyes.
Remnants of day retire;
the blue and green visions os Shadow Lawn spirits arise.

Mr. Raven
02:46
|
|||
|
Old Mr. Raven, lord of the night;
Mr. Raven says “goodbye”.
Safe in his haven high in the sky;
Mr. Raven says “goodbye”.
I see the hillside bathed in black; tombstones and old oak heed no track.
I hear him cawing all my doom;
Old Mr. Raven, goodbye.
Old Mr. Raven, lonesome he cries;
Mr. Raven says “goodbye”.
Old Mr. Raven, blowing my mind;
Mr. Raven says “goodbye”.
I see the hillside bathed in black; tombstones and old oak heed no track.
I hear him cawing all my doom;
Old Mr. Raven, goodbye.
Wings live higher, wreathed in fire.
Breathing moonlight, living midnight;
we’ll lead you there.
Old Mr. Raven, lord of the night;
Mr. Raven says “goodbye”.
Safe in his haven high in the sky;
Mr. Raven says “goodbye”.

Woman In The Window
03:08
|
|||
|
Up from a creek in the wood to your garden gate,
to creep quiet as I should in the hour so late.
I am watching you; you light a little candle, all the oak and ivy bright.
I long to call for you; it's more than I can handle.
Woman in the window, why?
Hidden in the shapes of the trees and the noises of night,
ridden with shame and dead leaves keeping out of sight.
I am watching you; you light a little candle, all the oak and ivy bright.
I long to call for you; it's more than I can handle.
Woman in the window, why?
My desires, however dark and dangerous they become,
you shall allow of me and return love.
Woman in the window, why?
