[Intro]
Curtains closed or the ghosts will burn
Eyes open wide, watching the crack in the door
Careful step over the monsters below
Muffled cries calling for me through the floor
[Verse 1]
My little friend dwells in the cellar
My little hands grasp the door handle
Don’t awake the demons in the attic
Creaking stairs down to the fireplace mantle
[Chorus]
The hall light flickers
Heart beats quicker
Father snickers
Stench of liquor
[Verse 2]
Creep through thе shadows into kitchen
The cries grow loudеr and louder piercing my brain
Fractured mind, terrified of the cellar
Godfather clock ticks and tocks in pain
[Chorus]
Clock strikes eleven
Cellar door beckons
Mother reckons
I won’t see heaven
[Bridge]
Slither onto the backyard porch by the cellar
The velvet sky drapes over me like curtain
Open up and look down into the darkness
Staircase spiraling down to a fate most certain
[Bridge}
Blood on the sheets
A trial by fire
A crown painted grey
A family heirloom
Inherit the dust
You’ll be just like us
Bitter and broken
You’ll be just like us
Rotting and smoking
Just like
[Chorus]
Father snickers
Stench of liquor
Mother reckons
I won’t see heaven
Monster growls
In the cellar bowels
Daughter grieves
The monsters never leave
[Outro]
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Curtains closed or the ghosts will burn
Eyes open wide, watching the crack in the door
Careful step over the monsters below
Muffled cries calling for me through the floor
[Verse 1]
My little friend dwells in the cellar
My little hands grasp the door handle
Don’t awake the demons in the attic
Creaking stairs down to the fireplace mantle
[Chorus]
The hall light flickers
Heart beats quicker
Father snickers
Stench of liquor
[Verse 2]
Creep through thе shadows into kitchen
The cries grow loudеr and louder piercing my brain
Fractured mind, terrified of the cellar
Godfather clock ticks and tocks in pain
[Chorus]
Clock strikes eleven
Cellar door beckons
Mother reckons
I won’t see heaven
[Bridge]
Slither onto the backyard porch by the cellar
The velvet sky drapes over me like curtain
Open up and look down into the darkness
Staircase spiraling down to a fate most certain
[Bridge}
Blood on the sheets
A trial by fire
A crown painted grey
A family heirloom
Inherit the dust
You’ll be just like us
Bitter and broken
You’ll be just like us
Rotting and smoking
Just like
[Chorus]
Father snickers
Stench of liquor
Mother reckons
I won’t see heaven
Monster growls
In the cellar bowels
Daughter grieves
The monsters never leave
[Outro]
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
Spiraling down
